Just managed to download Wings3D and it gets weird when trying to use .obj files made in Anim8or. And likewise for Anim8or when using .obj files made in Wings3D. Apparently Wings makes two sided normals on the meshes it uses, and Anim8or likes one sided normals on its meshes. Any way to make the two compatable or any fixes? I've tried fixing files with UVmapper, and saving them again but it's still being funny. Any suggestions?
