I am getting a weird barcode / circuitboard looking black and white texture map on a couch prop. This texture only appears on one of the three material zones for this prop. I cannot "override" this texture by using an image map. Is there any way to turn this thing off? It looks like some kind of default texture or error condition texture. (Poser 5 SR4.1) I have only seen this once before... when using the Poser library primitives. The standard flat square primitive displays this, but not the hi res square. Any ideas? ~Orodreth

Ohhh, isn't this something to do with backfacing polygons? The other possible reason is where two planes are sharing the same space (i.e. two cubes meeting). Have you tried rendering with the P4 renderer and see what happens?
