Summary0002499: Commit r7677 causing tetxture rendering issues when .bx is rebuilt
DescriptionNoted with FSU WIP Assets as well as retail models.
.bx files built with this revision are smaller than previous cache files, and causes ditortion in the UV layout on rendering the mapping.

Me and Mjn narrowed it down to this commit specifically.

This -could- still be model issue related to however UV assignation is being done, MAX shows the same issues in viewport on the same models, for instance, but not in the Rendering view, but it's a significantly large impact issue (affects roughly 60% of the assets in the MediaVPs).
Steps To ReproducePotentially tricky, some test models can be provided from the WIPs folder (making that package now), but either force rebuild the cache (-pofspew) or delete/rename a .bx file for a ship and load it in the lab. The new cache file will be smaller, and the mapping of the texture will change.

How much smaller? Is is a constant difference in size? Does it seems to scale with the number of vertices? textures? subobjects?

Does this revision force a rebuild of the .bx files or do you only see this issue if you force a rebuild or have a new pof for it to build?

It does not force a rebuild. The cache files are marginally smaller (331kb vs 340kb for the Charybdis model).

I'm not sure if this will help any, but I've uploaded a file that contains several caches built pre 7677 and post 7677 (same models for each). There is a list of about 5 models that didn't get screwed up post 7677 in the file as well.

Also worth noting, is that during this test I discovered that there is a significant increase in the time it took to build the cache file.
