Imported Obj and MTL files do not display correctly I am a bit of a noob at blender.
I have an Obj file and a Mtl file, which Windows' default model viewer can put the two together with no issue, so I know they're linked.
When I import the Obj file, they both import in the list, but the model appears black with 0 light source, and white with one. I've tried fiddling with the diffuse, but no avail. The block-white colour does change if I change the light source.
I've done my best to try and sort the issue by looking at the forums, but now I've come unstuck despite my best efforts.
If you're importing MTLs for your OBJs you need to make sure both the MTL and supporting UV texture JPGs/PNGs are selected during upload
Otherwise your model will be missing textures ,
 another noob here , just read this in a chat though, hope it helps
