Hi there! I'm busy updating some of my older models, to make their UV Maps better and texturing. Now I had this model and everything looked fine in Poser, untill I remapped the UV of some parts. I did not change anything on the geometry, but somehow this is what I'm seeing now after importing the wavefront into Poser8

What I did in my modeller 'Wings3D', is I made some cuts in the edges of the uvmap, to map it better. But I'm not sure on how this has any influence on how poser is now making triangles shadows! :s

Anyone any idea how to fix this problem? I can't figure this one out! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Add additional edge loops to the model, Poser does not like long thin polygons.

Another option is to split the vertices where the included angle is greater than 80 degrees. UVMapper Tools > Vertices > Split
