How does this work with TresEd's export and import TPM function? Does the exported TPM's from TresEd have these issues or is it the importer script for Max that cause them? As models exported from TresEd and back into Tres without MAX doesn't seem to have any issue?
As Drac just said:

The TresEd export function is the status-quo being used to locate errors in the maxscript export versions.
The objective is to have a file exported from within MAX (after being imported into it) almost identical to the one exported from TresEd.
And there are two separate:
- The importer not restoring the original normals in MAX
- The exporter not saving the same number as normals as TresEd

Also, forgot to bring this up: machf, there seems to be a problem with the import script which causes all verticies to break, resulting in each face becoming a separate element of the mesh. This can easily be fixed by selecting all vertices and welding them back together, but then the smoothing groups are all completely destroyed. I think this might be part of the normals error you're working on fixing.
The third issue (unwelded vertices) isn't related. In fact, it may be best to leave it unattended. The problem you see is caused by the normals not being restored, rather than by the faces being separated.
