Im sorry. I will go ahead and tell ya I AM a moron. And to decode something into *obj... what do you do? Just rename it? Another thing, what does it mean when it says, object is a newer version than expected, will try to read anyway? And whenever I try to load the barrel with fire in it I can faintly see the fire but there are dots all over it... this is making me depresse.

I dont know about the obj thing....but the fire you see has a transparency map on it, and that is why it appears as it does on your screen. But it will look more like fire when you render the image. (I have been wrestling with alot of transparency maps lately) :) Rawn

heh Ymeynot.... why don't you read the replies in your previous thread? ;o)

1. decoding implies a .pcf file? you need to get Maz mover for that. 2. you have something made with pro pack, it doesn't matter the item will still work. just say ok and if it bothers you re-save the item to your library. 3. already answered

My bad... I just didnt know if anyone was gonna reply to that one so I reposted.
