Odd lighting problem?

Kinda speaks for itself. It's a 3ds file that I loaded (exported from wings) into a scene with grey ambient lighting and a directional light coming from behind and to the left.
Code: Select all
AnimatedMeshSceneNode tower = scene.AddAnimatedMeshSceneNode(scene.GetMesh("crookedtower.3ds"));
tower.SetMaterialTexture(0, driver.GetTexture("cylinder.bmp"));
tower.Scale = new Vector3D(5, 5, 5);
tower.Position = new Vector3D(0, 0, 0);
Also tried an obj file but that just comes out black.
EDIT: Well I tried an obj file from silo the 3d modeller sent me (the maya one had the strangest clipping issues) and that works as long as I use normalize normals, but seems to ignore the ambient lighting value I set for the scene. So it lights properly for the directional light but is otherwise completely unlit. Oi vey!
Even tried:
Code: Select all
Material tmat = tower.GetMaterial(0);
tmat.AmbientColor = new Color(255, 127, 127, 127);
