Hi All! I have come across this a few times where an item seems to be missing a texture. For example, the item below is 'Dalmatian Co. Wall Mounted Fire Extinguisher and Case'. It is weird because the preview shows up correctly, but the diffuse DST image just has the glass texture. Going into the resources, I checked out the instance number for the diffuse texture on the phong group and sure enough it is referencing the diffuse texture shown in the image below. I tried looking at it in TSRW as well and same thing - it is missing the texture. How the heck is this working when the diffuse map it is referencing has no red texture or anything remotely resembling how it looks? This also happens on the 'Active Lot Siren Light'. I tried checking out the tuning for these items as well and can't track it down. Anyone have any ideas what is going on with these items??

Hi, I found that if you export the texture as dds, then the red part will show up. The odd part is that the alpha channel is black except for the glass area, so I'm not sure why the red part shows in game. If you try to export as png you will only see the glass part.

The deco cake stand from Get Together does this as well. As lavsm says, you have to export the texture as a DDS and the other part of the texture will be visible in your image editor. It is there. Studio just can't render it for some reason.

It seems that S4S previews the texture with the alpha channel applied, which can be misleading in some cases.

I was wondering if anyone could help with this similar issue, I exported it as dds and changed the color, but I got an error message when I tried to import it as dds back into Studio. So I saved it as png but now the case appears with the color change as empty (no fire extinguisher inside) in game.
