I'm exporting a basic cube model test from 3DSMax. I'm going max =\> collada =\> PVR converter =\> pod.
I have 6 sides each with a seperate texture. However, instead of splitting geometry into 6 meshes, each with a texture /material combo, I'm getting 6 copies of the cube.
What is the fix?
Thanks,
Martin

I'm using Max 2012, hence the collada intermediate step

Ok it looks like the error is in the MAX =\> Dae , the colloda exporter.

Hi,
Our last release of PVRGeoPOD had support for Max 2012 so your intermediate step isn't needed.
