maya obj export faces flipped

[Diffused]

I found it’s not really the normals that get messed, but the material. Try applying a material to that object instead of reversing its normals. Makes me think its something to do with the material that is not getting exported along with the model.

I get the same problem from time to time; I tend to export using ASCII or Maya’s own format rather then obj.

I have the same problem even when export and then importing Maya ascii format. I have to reapply the materials for the object to become visible. That's a pain when the object has multiple shaders. Is there a way to keep that connection when importing?
