Yes I'm sure, 'isRenderEnable' is true and 'hidden' is false. That's why I'm a bit puzzled with this one. All other meshes such as the tires for this truck work fine; while using the same tooling, file format and export settings (Open Collada).

did u try with different properties of advanced(all layers) in material editor?

But quite a peculiar bug.. I'm pretty blank on this one!

Collision is not working. Broke down the node structure to the most basic one with just one mesh with one texture (mesh color, no maps, no layers)... still nothing. Even tested it in 1.1 and 1.2
The shape in total is pretty big; 14k polys; could this be the problem?

All I can guess is that it is using the collision mesh for rendering or it is getting stupid with 14K polys.

Reduced the polycount to a 10k (including LODs); still nothing

Collision mesh has the detail level size of -1Reduced the polycount to a 10k (including LODs); still nothing

I ended up using www.deadlyassets.com\max2dtsExporters_fixedLOD_DTSv24_100MaxDetails_9_2009_2010_...
I'm sure this worked for me in 3DSMax

I had a similar problem with a low poly object (less than 500 polys) some time ago, if I remember correctly it was a LOD errorI ended up using www.deadlyassets.com\max2dtsExporters_fixedLOD_DTSv24_100MaxDetails_9_2009_2010_...
I'm sure this worked for me in 3DSMax

Thanks @David! I'll use that if these problems occur with DTS objects. In this case (Characters, Vehicles, Trees etc.) I want to stick with Collada.

SOLVED! It maybe had something to do with the UWV mapping. After adding 'unwrap UWV' to the stack in Max and converted it to a mesh again the truck became finally visible in the scene.Thanks @David!
