I try and import it, and S3D tells me it has quads or polys. It does not. It's not that big, I checked all of them.

It's driving me nuts

S3D won't say it for no reason... post the file so I can check

It was MY fault, not S3D. I assumed that it was, so I kept looking for the polygon.




BTW, I might alter the large piles now that I grok wings3d, such that I can make the same sized pile by tiling 2-3 K nodes.

Did you make sure to triangulate any transparent/invisible faces as well as the visible ones? Sorry if you already tried that - I just found out recently that even parts set to [material-hole] in Wings3d must be triangulated.

Yeah, the tutorial says to go to vertex mode (v), then hit "c" to connect them. Doesn't get all of them that way, though.
