i don't know if there is a way to do that since i'm using the MR_FORCE_TEXTURE render flag.  unless there is some screwed up logic somewhere

should be

Code: [Select]


if (!invisible_tex && (flags & MR_FORCE_TEXTURE))
     //do stuff here

Basically anything with lots of rotating parts: you need something to show where the mani geometry is.
