I made a skin for a warthog. normal just like any other. but when i move away from the warthog it turns pitch black the skin is fine up close. any ideas why this is happening? the problem occurs whether i add the skin to the map directly or shared.map any ideas?

When you save it in photoshop, check the "Generate MIP Maps" box.

You have to check the Generate MIP maps box when saving it as a .dds and don't save it as No MIP maps.

EDIT: MT already answered >_< I was too slow to reply because I was talking on AIM.

Clear you Cache also, that might help.
