We are running MultiGen Version 1.4 and loader 15.4. We have
the same problem with both 15.4 and 14.2 flight files.

Sounds like there's a problem with state management, maybe a
problem with the way the loader created the scene graph and
associated state information from the flight file.
What version of Multigen, flight file format & loader are you using?
