Now you lost me...I made the mesh...conformed it etc...Then I sent it to my partner to make the extra textures for it...She has made mat files many times and has not had this problem before...

I tell you it's a total mystery!

Oh though I did notice...when I make the cr2 I make it  version4.1

I notice on the mat files it says version 5

Could this make a difference?
Though it didn't with any others that we have done...
