max 9 texture not updating..

gavku

This is the first time I've used max 9 to unwrap something, and my checker texture doesn't seem to update in the viewport.....I thought that maybe it was the file I was working on, so I started a new file and tried again..No dice...Also tried to assign a different material then reapply the checker....nup thats a no-go too.....

any ideas?.....

In the UV Editor window, go to options|advanced options and check constant update in viewport.

Still doesn't work....
Its weird because I've never had this problem in any other version of max...i thought that maybe 9 had some stupid new feature that I was ignorant of.

You're UV'ing channel 2 instead on channel 1, just set the "map channel" to 1(its under the "load" button).
