I use CreatePhongNormals() to access cinemas phongnormals and export them with my plugin.
For most of the standardforms this works fine.
But it always crashes when I try to export the figure.
(I make the figure editable and connect all parts into 1 mesh before exporting)

The funny thing is, it doesnt crash if I lower the segments count first.

Is there any other way to access the phongnormals?

it works just fine here, even with the figure. i just following code.

static void WriteObjects(BaseObject *op)
{
     while (op)
     {
          if ((op->GetType()==Opolygon) && (op->GetTag(Tphong,0)))
          {
               LONG    i,vcnt = ToPoly(op)->GetPolygonCount();
               Vector *normals = ToPoly(op)->CreatePhongNormals();

for (i=0; i<vcnt; i++)
               {
                    GePrint("A "+RealToString(normals[i+0].x)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+0].y)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+0].z));
                    GePrint("B "+RealToString(normals[i+1].x)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+1].y)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+1].z));
                    GePrint("C "+RealToString(normals[i+2].x)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+2].y)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+2].z));
                    GePrint("D "+RealToString(normals[i+3].x)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+3].y)+", "+RealToString(normals[i+3].z));
               }

GeFree(normals);
}

WriteObjects(op->GetDown());
op=op->GetNext();
}
}

cheers,
