I'm trying to create a bunch of custom blocks in Blender which I will then share for others to use. I exported from Blender as OBJ and set up the collection for Asset Forge however the models are coming through with extra faces in Asset Forge. Can anyone shed some light on as to why this happens? (it's half a couch if you're wondering)

I worked it out... Maybe. I think it has to do with making sure faces are divided a certain way.

The side of the model is a concave n-gon. Asset Forge does not know how to resolve that kind of geometry and makes a best guess attempt.

Solution: Don't use concave polygons and don't use n-gons.

Thank you NottheDan. But I really don't know what I'm doing in Blender yet (as you probably gathered). So much so that I am not familiar with the terms you've used haha. I'll do some research on what n-gon and concave polygons are.
