问题
I am told that for a simple cube I need 36 vertices when I want to have colors/textures etc. for OpenGL ES application but when I export the colored cube to OBJ format using Blender, I only get 8 vertices and also I don't even get color data in the OBJ not to mention I only get 8 normals in OBJ file but I need normal for each vertex in each triangle ( a total of 36 normals).
This is what I get as the content of the OBJ file for a cube that has been colored with different colors on all the faces:

36 vertices for a cube is not right. Possible but unnecessary.
A vertex is a kind of coordinate in space, consisting of 3 parameters, x, y, z.
As a cube has 8 corners then there should be 8 vertices only.
Following vertices, there are texture coordinates which is obtained after UV mapping in Blender.
After texture coordinates, there are indices. They are the order of connecting vertices which determines in what order your cube is drawn.
And at last, there are normals for lighting effects.
While exporting in Blender, make sure you highlight only those:
Context:
all scenes
Output Options:
triangulate, materials, UVs, normals, HQ
Blender objects as OBJ:
objects
This gives you two files: OBJ and MTL
MTL contains texture image info
and OBJ contains:
vertices in form of:
v x, y, z
v x, y, z
texture coordinates in form of:
vt x, y
vt x, y
indices in form of:
f i/j k/l m/n
f i/j k/l m/n
After you successfully get your exported OBJ and MTL files, add them to your project with the texture image and use OpenGLOBJLoader class to render them in iOS.
