when rendering an animation an error message saying "invalid normal array" always appears. I'm doing an animation with moving letters on a path around an object with a shield effect. I have no problem rendering any still frames of the same animation, but the error message appears when I try to render the flc files and sometime when i render the stil frame. If it doesn't work the first time when rendering an Image it always works the second time. when trying to render the animatiom (640×480) the error message always appears within the first 10 frames. what is causing this error message to appear ? and how can I correct it, I would appreciate any suggestions thank you, Sincerely, alain
