Hi Paolo,

I am one step further in isolating my pfconv problem. It makes
definitely a difference, if I run pfconv on my development system
(Indigo) or or on our Onyx. The same command running on the Onyx works
fine. Running on the Indigo gives exactly the same messages. No warnings
about unavailable filters, etc... But the resulting pfb file is
different, when I test it with perfly. My command is

pfconv -M pfb,2,1, infile outfile

So, the DWB-loader seems to be dependent of the graphic-hardware. But
that is nonsense for a development system.

regards, Jürgen

Hi Jürgen,

I cannot think of why pfconv would change your texture filter..

You could quickly try to convert your models to .pfa to see if
that makes any difference.

If you can send us a small terrain file in .dwb format, I will be
happy to take a closer look.

Thanks,
Regards,
Paolo
