Perfect! Thank you so much!
I never would have thought of looking under the "Normals" menu. Shows what I
know

in maya, select all the faces, and go to normals-> flip. That should
do it i think.

This is cool!
I followed your directions and Away3D now appears to be running noticeably
faster, and I am getting a lot less distortion using the basic renderer.
If anyone else needs to find the same thing, it's under the shape, then "render
stats".
I used the "opposite" setting for a couple of my faces, but it looks like
Away3D doesn't support this feature. I guess I need to flip the geometry instead? Is
there a simple way to do this in Maya?
Thanks again for all your help. I don't know where I would be without this

ColladaMaya didn't like. Do you think it would be worth it to try and get ColladaMaya
to work, or should I go ahead and stick with OpenCollada?
