Hi Richard,
I have a problem with multiple distance levels. I have been using this feature for quite a few models know. However, it is only when using a utility for counting polys written by Paul Gausden that I have realised that all the distance levels are being exported with the same number of polygons. The only reduction is with the 2000 mtr level which has a very reduced number of polys. I have tried the utility with models written by other people and there the number of polys has been reduced in every distance level. Therefore the utility is working. I have also tried it on the train model uploaded to this site by Paul and I get the same problem. This should elimate any error on the way I have written my models. I'm presuming that the distance levels use the reduce object faces and points tool, therefore, I tried this and I have found that this tool does not work on my system (windows ME). I get no error message but it does not reduce any faces or points (although it does remove any texturing). I,m wondering if I have a corrupt install of canvas as it is impossible to uninstall it using your installer. (and it does not list in my control panel/ add remove programs.) What registry entries would I have to remove to completely clear the program so that I can try a clean install. Sorry to ask so many questions. Cheers Kevin |

Have you got DirectX 8.1 installed? That may help.
