I've read that 3dmax5 should show spec maps and alpha maps (all kinds of maps) in viewport in realtime if you're using a D3D driver.
I tried all drivers and it still doesn't work. Yea yea, i did click the "show in viewport" button in material editor.

This is an old problem actually, but i just remember about it. Any max users?

Have you got show texture in viewports checked at all levels in the material? For example the base level and in the specular map level aswell. Dunno though, I'm just guessing.

Thnx i'll check it when i'm at home..
And no, i had it on only on the general material level.

PS: If it doesn't work, maybe it's because of my crappy ATI Radeon 64 card.

now shizo.. how could a lazy unemployed(well practically) bum like you afford 3dsmax5?

Who says he's doing it at home? maybe he goes to a rich friends house...

Just teasing man.. no harm meant... here or in Lunas thread either..

[Ian Jones]
