As long as all your textures will fit in the 4 or 16MB of texture
memory on your RM boards, a couple pfutil calls make this easy:

>From sample/apps/common/generic.c used in perfly:

        ViewState->texList = pfuMakeTexList((pfNode *)scene);
        pfuDownloadTexList(ViewState->texList, PFUTEX_SHOW);

rgds,

  Subject: textures...

  Hey all...
     I didn't find anything in the FAQ about this...

  I'm modeling the Earth's moon in a Performer application. I use
  a sphere constructed and textured via MultiGen. When I run my
  app and the moon first comes into view, my app freezes until the
  texture is loaded. Is there anyway to preload MultiGen-modeled
  texture? (It's taking about 3-4 seconds to load, which is
  unacceptable...)

  Thanks,
