That's strange. As for Mesh.001, I think this is a case where I forgot to update an error message. Originally, Korman exported the mesh attached to your object, but now it makes a temporary copy of it so that it can apply modifiers. Unfortunately, this means that the real name of the offending mesh is hidden from us. I'll have to fix that for 0.02

Something that might help. If I try and re-export it, the error now says it's happening on Mesh.002, .003, and so forth for successive exports.

The tsho_rocks material belongs to 7 objects: the large rock that serves as the ramp to let players get out of the water, 5 boulders that have landed in the area, and "tsho_rubblepiles" which is the only object that could be really causing problems since it is an object containing all small rocks that litter the area with a total of 18k verts in the object.

Another issue I'm having is that all objects are rendering in blender with their textures on their outside. So I can't see interiors. Is this just how 2.74 works or do I need to change something? I can't find where to flip normals in this version.

You may need to split that big object into several using that same material. In MOUL, you can only have 32,768 vertices per material per object (65,535 in PotS). I neglected to mention in the previous post that Blender stores vertices somewhat differently than Uru does, so, in some cases, one vertex in Blender can become many in Uru. It's possible we're seeing some inflation of the vertex count that way. You might also try making a vertex color layer named "color" to see if Korman's vertex light baking is somehow screwing things up.

The number following "Mesh" increasing isn't surprising ;)

It's located in the tool window you get when pressing T while the mouse pointer is over the 3D window.

Well, now I've found the buttons, but flipping the normals makes no difference. The cavern of Tosholek still looks like normals are pointing outwards.

Hasn't been rescaled has it so it becomes inverted?

Nope! Also, I checked it out in a blank blend file and it still does this if I try and put a texture on the noob cube. Is this just how new blender renders shit? :(

Solution found! Blender now apparently defaults to backface culling off. Press "n" and go to "shading" on the panel that pops out. Then click "Backface Culling"

Hoikas, if you need someone to test .02, send me a copy. I feel like I'm close to getting Tosholek to export and .02 sounds like it's going to have some features that might get it to work.
