[OpenGL] UV Coordinates Not Correct

Question

I am using Cheetah3D if it mattters.

The UV coordinates I am reading in my object made in Cheetah3D are NOT between 0 and 1 like the example model I was provided with the 3DS model object loading code.

Some go above 1 as high as 1.56 or so while others go below 0, as far as -4.56. This is causing extreme abnormalities when trying to map the texture to the object.

Any ideas? Should I contact the Cheetah3D folks or is there a way to fix this in code myself dynamically? (The reason for posting on SO).

Well without seeing screenshots the only thing that comes to mind is that the texture cords should be wrapped but you're clamping them. See the documentation for glTexParameter* on how to change that setting. A screenshot of a SIMPLE model would really help here.
