Tina,

You mention that our loader is giving an error on trying to load the
textures.  What format are the texture files (JPG? GIF?)?  Or perhaps
are you missing the texture files?  A common problem we've heard from
users is people trying to view "invisible" objects (i.e. we don't create
any Shape3Ds that don't have an associated material).
