i havent messed much with the maya 5 vector renderer, i have a character all skinned textured. i rendered i just get flat colors, i get no textures on there. will it not do that? im not being lazy by not looking in the docs, but i assumed if someone knows they could just tell me and dave me the troubles thanks all.

You could allways render in layers an dcomposite the effects. I'm not sure if it is possible but it would defeat the point of rendering to a compact swf if it included bitmaps.

I think you have to use the mesh fill option, and have a fairly dense mesh to render out the texture. It has to generate a colour per polygon, so when you have a low res object, you wont get as much definition in the texture as if you had a hi res object.
