What version of the OpenFlight loader are you using?

In release R14.1c, one of the bugs I fixed involved cases
where detail texture binding, when shared across files, was
not being done. This would give a "currupted" texture visual
like you describe.

Please call MultiGen Product Support at (408) 261-4110
for a free update. The current release is R14.1f, which
is a fair bit better than previous versions ...
