Max Skin weight painting question

Rick Stirling

Sometimes In max when I'm painting the weights in the skin modifier, I get vertex colouring over the mesh, not just coloured verts. Sometimes I don't.

At the miunte I'm rigging someones model and the head has the vertex colours but the body doesn't. The head and body are 2 different materials of a Multisub material, but I can't see any obvious differences in the material editor.

What button do I need to press to turn it on for the body too?

Select the object and try Display tab -> Display Properties -> Vertex Colors.

Nope. It was the self illumination that was fecking it up.
