hello

I'm having issues with Dirtmap. When i load a scene, objects (at random) that have the dirtmap shader wont render. I close XSi open it up again and now different random objects wont render but the original ones do!!! Wtf is going on?

I'm using XSi foundation 5.0 offical (purchased) version

Cheers

Try to use Xsi Ambient Occlusion instead

hia

thanks for the reply. ive been using the Ambient Occlusion too, but thanks for the tip. However, this doesnt address the reason why these objects flip in and out of the scene when i render. Anyone with any ideas? or is dirt map just buggy?

Dirtmap is cross app, production proven and stable. I can't guess what's causing you problems.

I think the initial 5.0 release had an issue like you describe, I recall having a similiar problem.

Try 5.11 and see if that doesn't fix it.
