One thing that will make it easier to read and match the j3d file info to the exported obj file is to rotate the model on export.

Now the faces info.

If you jumped to position 163020 decimal your at the start of the faces info.
You will see:
01 00 02 00 00 00 02 00 03 00 00 00 03 00 04 00
00 00 04 00 05 00 00 00 05 00 06 00 00 00 06 00
Blah blah blah.

ADD 1 to each Short. So 01 00 should be converted to 2 for export.
02 00 would be 3, 03 00 would be 4, and on and on.

The current export options accumulate all the faces info! You will hit the
01 00 02 00 00 00 02 00 03 00 00 00 03 00 04 00
00 00 04 00 05 00 00 00 05 00 06 00 00 00 06 00
Blah blah blah.
stuff 5 times in the example sub I am working with.
I suspect that is just objects imported during the building of the unit.
I'll check other files to see if this holds true.

So read the 01 00 02 00 00 00 as such for faces:
2/2 3/3 1/1

Current export options will give you:
1/1 2/2 3/3 and so on.
