A quick addition to the tip by the_frog: Silent3ditor spits automatically edges which are contiguous in the 3D mesh, but separated in the UV map (if you don't believe it, just import/export a model to/from S3d and reload it in your 3D editing program), so you don't need to modify your model's geometry directly, i.e. edges which are split in the UV map act anyway as "hard edges"

...and a question for the_frog: do you mean that unticking "import vertex normals" is always a good measure, or it should only be done in case of weird lighting issues?
