Ok so I'm getting really frustrated using the DTS Exporter. I've done the tutorial and i got the object to appear with its texture, but when i export my own object with my own material it comes up white. PLEASE HELP!

You probably didn't make the dimensions of the texture a power of two (that is 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 etc).

Also ensure that the bitmap format you are exporting to is a JPG or PNG.

And make sure you save the jpg or png in the same directory as your dts object.

Check your image dimension and make sure they are in the same location as the object - sounds like it's not DirectX compliant or it's just not there with the object. Going from one pc to another shouldn't matter.
