    You mean that your textures are replaced by the "No Texture" texture? It is usually an material related issue. We could help you but we need more info (by we i mean the forum).

    I have a similar issue where when resizing a window all the detail textures on a landscape vanish, assumed it would be fixed in the next release but maybe I should also post some details if the two are related just incase

    @Tom,

    I had a similar issue, would set up the models the way I wanted them then reload the level and the textures would be gone. I would look in the console log and it would show it couldnt load those texture files.


    I noticed that it only did it on textures that were in dds format. I converted them to png and problem went away.

    Further testing indicated there was something wrong with the way the dds textures were created. I was able to open the dds in Photoshop CS4 then resave them with out mips and they worked
