Vertices

XYZ and UV coordinates are stored in parallel (same number of entries in PNTA and TXCA).

Vertex normals

The first VCRA stores the normals for every vertex (same entries as in PNTA and TXCA).

Vertex normals are used by Gouraud shading (directional lighting).

Face normals

The second VCRA stores the normals for every face (groups defined by the second IDXA).

Face normals are used for backface culling.

Triangle strips

The first IDXA lists the triangles as strips. The IDs are the ones in PNTA and IDXA.

The start of a new strip is signaled by a high bit in the ID of its first vertex.

Strips are more optimal for rendering, they are generated when authoring an M3GM.

Face groupings

The second IDXA groups the triangles into faces (oriented by the second VCRA).
