What are degenerate triangles?

And what if the edges in the debug wrl don't match up with edges in the original max file?

Its when a triangle drops out of society and spends most of his time drinking and pissing himself .
its when u cross edges when u drag verts mostly i think.

just re uvw the faces surrounding it.

so, do you import the wrl into our map in gmax or just import it? or do you import it into your map's wrl file? this is wierd...

Most of the times that error can be fixed by manually UVing the face errored( Most of the time you'll find it had no UV Coords yet or that it's all stretched). If nothing does, delete and redraw the face but i'm fairly confident that would be enough.
