Reproduction steps:
1. Open the attached 'qTangents Reproduction Project' project
2. Open the 'Sample Scene'
3. Make sure the 'USE_WEIGHTS' field is set to True in the 'ModelPostprocessor.cs' script
4. Reimport the 'ExampleAssets' folder

Expected result: All objects are rendered in color
Actual result: Some sides of objects in the Scene view are rendered black

Reproducible with: 2019.4.36f1, 2020.3.30f1, 2021.2.14f1, 2022.1.0b10, 2022.2.0a6

  1. Resolution Note:

    When BlendIndices and BlendWeights are used in a vertex layout Unity requires a specific data layout. The Vertex position and normal must be in the same stream, and blend weights and indices must be in their own stream, and the vertex position and normal are required to be 3 components in size. This change is done on load, while the on disk data matches what is requested. The layout is required for Unity's skinning code to use the model data, and we can not detect at load time where the model is being used, nor is the user prevented from reassigning the model to a SkinnedMeshRenderer, thus we do the safe thing.
