Hm.. When I had this problem, it was because I hadn't exported the mesh correctly. What exporter are you using?

I think there's a direct x number setting in the JT exporter, it has to be set to 180 or something like that, it's a long time since I use milkshape.

TEST OF WILL,

Yes due to the error message you recieve it sounds like the .x file is not credible but your exporter choice is a good one.

If you continue to have problems, try a simpler test for the object. Try inserting it in a bare test level as an enity using a simple entity script to see if it still behaves erronously. If it does it is probably the .x file not being stable or incorrectly saved out from milkshape, there being a compatibility issue. Try some different settings in the export dialogue from milkshape. Post your export settings here some one may be able to help.

I am not sure how others are finding such custom made objects behaving when using them with V1.6.1

Point to one of the default meshes in FPSC,try retexturing this.
Unless you are creating a floor mesh which is a completely different shape (simple box) then there is really no point in creating a new mesh.
Only the first texture,diffuse,needs to be named with _D or _D2.
Specular should be _S and normal maps _N.
It looks like you are trying to use the same texture for all of the shaders.
