How do you map 2d onto the 3d models using 3dpi? Is there a tutorial
somewhere? Havn't tried that yet.
3DPI is not required to do that, but it helps. Using 3DPI, or just
plain ol' lingo, you need to create a new 3D plain and a shader for it

Found it. Delete the aptly named dirapi.mch file hidden deep in your

Oh yes. Until the file was deleted, then recreated on the next quit.

You don't. You make an exit dialog with Yes and No buttons. I use a
MIAW. You could use a MUI dialog if you feel masochistic.
Checked out the latest MUI-GUI xtra?
Very nice MUI.

That still works.
Is it just an issue of the documentation? ScriptExecutionStyle?

Ok, got it. It was a DPE (Dumb Programmer Error).
I was looking at the wrong sprite. That cast member is used someplace
