Imported objects can't be lit?

In the explorer... expand your imported objects and look for a cluster called user normals... delete the bugger... have fun.

Thanks a lot. I was suspicious it was a normal issue, thus my other post about normals too (thanks for the answer there also) but I would have never figured out what to do. I tried importing with the 'import normals' option unchecked, but every time I tried that the import didn't work at all. No objects came in.

Yeah... it's a common issue... and definitely a quark in XSI's .obj implementation. Thankfully there is a production workaround.
