Hey!

I'm making a 3D object loader using the Matrix1Utils, and the main parts of the object file I'm worried about are:

1.) Vertices
2.) Vertex normals
3.) 2D Texture Coordinates
4.) Face data (made up of the above three things)

So as far as the FVF format is concerned, I know for the vertices I'll need FVF_XYZ and for the vertex normals I'll need FVF_NORMAL. But what about texturing, since I'm using 2D coordinates for that and there are 8 different texture formats?

D3DFVF_TEX1 - if you have 1 set of tex coords
D3DFVF_TEX2 - if you have 2 sets of tex coords
etc...

For example:
Lets say you have an object with textures and lightmaps - you need 2 sets - one set for base texture and one set for lightmaps
