Black Spots
I've tried normalising UV's, merging vertices etc etc, deleting history etc etc.
Is it my graphics card? Has it conked out? Other files seem to work fine...
Please somebody, this is crazy.
What the hell is going on?

I meant soften/hardening my normals, not normalising UV's.

Why are the normals in the surrounding area of those black spots facing correctly on my unsmoothed model.
Why, if it is new, has it affected all my previous saves?
And, finally, now that I know whats wrong, whats the best way besides manually editing these bastards to fix this problem?
Extreme thankyou's to anybody who replys.
