No problem here. I just extracted the rock to it's own folder and loaded it as a population from there. Lovely rock by the way, thanks again.

try this .tgd, it uses the camo preset so should load fine as it's all procedurals.

Query, was the U/V mapping done in your modeling app or externally and if so which app did you use. Been struggling along with the mapping in PoseRay but it's often inadequate to the model.

All of it was created in 3D Coat, except the .tgo conversion.  Not an easy program to master.  But once you do...unlimited possibilities!

Thanks bobby. Your file loads. Object loads after relocating object on my system. Object shows in little window but not displaying in preview render window. Attempted to render without touching anything. Program crashes... 
Must be my POS computer...  >:(     Tempted to skip it across the lake.
Not going to worry about it now. Will investigate later.

I think it's a 30 day trial.  That's what I went with before deciding to buy it.  The real investment is becoming familiar with its unfamiliar interface.  Although I also tried the 4.5 beta and it looks like they've cleaned it up a bit in the newer version.

Weird, maybe planetside staff can help with this. I'm using the current free version as well and no problems.

a tad off topic but I decided to export this rock as an .obj and while it doesn't hold the textures it keeps the U/V maps....does it do this for all exported tgo's as .obj's...must check further.

El Kabong, can you email us your computer specs and any other relevant info to support@planetside.co.uk ? We'd like to try to figure out why it's crashing.

You have asked that before and the answer was yes.
