The Mystery of the Missing Body Parts

[blackcat77]

Sounds like a case for CSI, but it's not...

Several people have reported that the wing, sides and back are missing when they view the Pilbeams for Brenda and I. I had no idea what it was until I got a hunch and when Tom told me he'd noticed the same thing, I asked him what DX he was using and he said it was 8. I asked him to switch to 9 and when he did, he could see the missing parts.

Gil Grissom would be proud.

But all kidding aside, it's not acceptable to me that only the people who use DX9 should be able to see my car properly. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem and how it can be fixed?

No Paul I don't know the answer but I have my setting at AUTO. I haven't been on track with you two so can't tell you what my views were.

I only replyed here to let you and others know my settings. Hope this will help for what it's worth.

Would like to know for the future though and if you get tne answer, hope you tell the world.

Paul,

Maybe Bob has the answer because the sides of his Pilbeam show. Sorry I didn't catch that. I just put the files in the Pilbeam folder, zipped it with Bob's and uploaded it.

My answer was to let Paul do mine. Don't know why his aren't working when mine are fine.

[blackcat77]

Yep. And I didn't do a thing different for yours than I did for mine.

Sometimes I think the computer gremlins do things like this just torment us...

I'll take a look at it in a few minutes

[blackcat77]

So what did I do wrong?

Paul, I removed those downloads as that didn't fix it. This is a good one. Originally I thought it was the DXT5 setting in the DDS converter since the other were set at DXT3. But that wasn't it. I even took one of Bob's same files and renamed it and it still didn't work.

This is gonna be a good one.
