hello, just having a problem. When i make a model and put it on a bone, it use to show the colors and stuff when its showing the bones and object. Now it shows it all white and its kinda hard to put in somethin that i want it to be but its too hard to see.

Hello RZ,
 It might pay to post a pic of your problem.  Are you in figure mode when it happens.?. When you say colours, do you mean textures or bone colours?

  I think you might be on to something there mak. ;)
 If it is what i think it is, then its some sort of conflict between materials. (textures), which has happened to me b4 in figure mode, but it still looks ok in scene mode. ?
 Can't think off hand exactly what to do about fixing it.
 This is one reason i always say 'name your textures'. You might hav 2 textures in fig mode, both from different objects, but both with the same name?. ie: material01

 The names you give to your materials aren't important, but they do need to be different from any others.
 You could possibly try naming your materals now, but make sure you have a copy of your file, just in case. ;)
