First off, sorry for the late reply - I've been working a lot lately and haven't had much computer time.

Hi privateer, they do have Normal mapping, but since these are the SH3 models, they don't have native occlusion mapping. I have modded the turm 4 that Ace's added an AO map to (for my own use!), but it still goes transparent when viewed from above the water. When viewed underwater it's fine.

Yep, the materials are set properly, still no joy.

I've borrowed miner1436's image from the OM thread to illustrate what's happening:



This is what's happening to the Type 7's Turm 2 and Turm 4 options. As you can see, the exterior model goes invisible, but the interior model doesn't. This happens in "Stock" OM, before I played around importing the models. This image appears to be the Type 9 Turm 2 option, but I haven't investigated the 9 thoroughly. Turm 1 and, I think, Turm 3 for the 9 are both fine, as are the same Turms for the Type 7.

I have noticed that the Turms that work properly are linked in some way to the NSS_GESubSenzors_T01.tga, but I haven't been able to replicate whatever was done.

Mind you, the Type 7B Turm 1 works properly, but the issue surfaced when I imported the Turm 2 model with the extra gun position. Same DAT file, but different model.

Mike.
