3DS Files Produced from Lightwave Objects

There are several issues with 3DS files exported by the Trans3d plug-in for Lightwave. These are best handled using the following Conv3ds.exe command:

conv3ds -r -N -f -h -T|m trans3dfile.3ds

All the 3DS objects produced by Trans3d and the Lightwave object editor need their winding order reversed. Otherwise, they appear "inside-out" when displayed. They contain no surface normal vector information.
