Hello.

I use Autodesk 3DS Max 8 for modeling, rigging, animation, etc, for whatever projects I'm working on in Star Wars: Empire at War. Recently, I rerigged the stock Victory-class Star Destroyer model to be a Victory I-class, but when I export it to .alo, and this only happens while exporting to .alo, Max gives me this popup:

I noticed on a previous export of a Dominator-class that I rigged from the stock model of the Star Destroyer from EaW that in the ALO Viewer, the shadow mesh appears green:

I'm guessing that when I tried to render the texture to the model while I worked on it (Failed trying to find the proper settings) I changed a few vital settings on the shaders or in the menu. I can't for the life of me reverse this either. I've tried reinstalling max and all, still have the same problem.

Is there anyway to fix this?

Im thinking you may have had a windows service pack install something that might conflict with your plugin.. or another plugin is clashing with it. rather then a export that ruins your max after 1 run.. seems a little more likely its a new plugin or windows update.. though i could stand corrected as i dont have this particular game or version of max... though i run other versions with simmilar issues cropping up.

Thank you. I discovered my problem was that I had not reinstalled the Service Pack 3 that I need to use the plugin. All is well now, so thank you for helping!
