I have encountered a problem with black or dark streaks appearing in some texture maps rendered by 3DSr3 when Filter Maps is ON. I had a successful rendering with Filter Maps ON, but could not recreate the situation. The streaks: To describe the streaking: If the map was placed in Quadrant III of a 2D cartesian coordinate system and you drew a series of about 50 – 1 pixel wide concentric rectangles centered about the origin with random sizes, the resulting image is what my rendered texture map looks like. To give a simpler description: It looks like somebody went wild with an Etch-a-Sketch (turning one knob at a time) – not subtle at all! I can send more details upon request. Thanks.
