infolog.txt please

edit: stupid me. can use the infolog.txt from the other ticket. still don't see anything suspicious in there. try "--safemode" and/or empty springsettings.cfg

I think I know why the unit is black, as I noticed something similar on the map Escarpment_v2. The tree leaves were black, so I checked in upspring and indeed, if a face has vertex normals of (0,0,0), it will be black. (see attached screenshot0085)

(screen00095.png) Note how the trunk has normals, so its not black.

should Spring warn about models with zero normals?

Imo a warning should be plenty sufficient.

a model (or parts of it) being black should itself be enough of a hint/warning, because there is only one way that can happen and will already be visible in upspring.

zero-normals could also be randomized to make it even more obvious.

Please dont randomize the normals, it is a way more subtle bug to troubleshoot than a black unit with a warning in infolog.
