Issue ID
1211881
Regression
No
Different Tangent types result in different vertices count in the same fbx model
Reproduction steps:
1. Open "1211881" project
2. Select "Head" Game Object in the scene
3. In the Inspector click on the "Mesh" selector dot
4. In the Model preview, notice the number of verts
5. In the Project window Select "Head.FBX"
6. In the Inspector change the "Tangents" to some other value
7. Repeat Steps 2-4
Expected Result: The number of verts is the same
Actual Result: The number of verts is different
Reproduces with: Direct3D11, Direct3D12, Vulkan, OpenGL

Latest issues
- [Android] Stage information is not logged when Log Shader Compilation is enabled
- [Vulkan] The memory allocation increases rapidly when there are multiple (three or more) Real-Time Reflection Probes in the Scene
- [macOS] Library folder of the opened project can be deleted which leads to the crash
- “Default Scene” dropdown field contains a spelling mistake “Default Builtin”
- Editor crashes on PPtr<Mesh> after adding Text Mesh and Cloth Components to the same GameObject
Resolution Note:
This is the expected behavior in Unity.
The number of vertices are driven by how the tangents are treated when setting the normals, which can vary depending on approach used to calculate.
