Whenever I load a transparency map into 3DO, from certain angles, it affects both the geometry it is assigned to AS WELL as the geometry below. I have included two images.

Sorry they aren't free. I will be giving a sample set that has around 100 soon that are from all of the premium sets. I will update…

Look at the bottom right of your screenshot - grid=1m. A dead giveaway that your chair is huge. Each grid spacing is 1 metre. You should save your synced unit and grid sizes into your maxstart.max file. One of the tips I gave in my 3DArtist issue 123 article was to make use of the Maxstart file. It's surprising how few Max…
