I recently purchased the Steampunk Castle and Steampunk Steamplant bundle and have to say they are terrific.

I am having a problem with the castle, however.  It works great in Poser (Poser 7) and I get wonderful looking renders out of it.  Yesterday I loaded it into Vue 8, as I'm using it as a backdrop in an animated short I'm working on.  As usual, I had to mess with the texture maps and settings to get everything scaled correctly, and everything looked fine except for the bronze turrets at the corners of the outerwalls.  They have these weird slots on the surface, almost like distorted windows and are very distracting. 

 I removed the textures so I could see the turrets in both Poser and Vue as smooth shaded objects.  In Poser I can see a slight shadow that is covered once the textures are applied, but in Vue these same areas are badly distorted, almost as if the mesh has been warped or changed.  Any Idea what might be causing this?  

 I hope I can get this worked out as I need Vue animations to make this film work and this is a great looking set-piece.
