I agree.
In my particular case I was going to use the mesh unsmoothed so it is a problem because the mesh renders half black.

Thanks for encouraging me to try the Edge Weight Tool. At first it sounds a bit too propellerhead kind of tool, but it wasn't - infact it did not even fix my problem. I don't doubt the usefulness of the tool, but is there another way of getting arid of the funky look. I spun the weight dial from 0 to 4000% - plus and minus - and it did not have any effect on anything that I could see.

I have Carrara now covered, but I want those Silo meshes to work in Modo too. Why do I get this feeling that this thing only happens to me? Shouldn't there be more people asking the same thing? Or is this export/import route combination so rare - not many are meshing in Silo and rendering in Modo?
