I received your file and looked at it. I am pretty certain this is the problem: the model has coincidental/duplicate faces.

For example, look at Object005 ... and then Faces #267 and #268. They are occupying the same space.

I have a feeling that this is primarily resulting from importing models from "unclean" sources. I noticed that the bookshelf was almost 1/4 MILLION tris... which is insanely ridiculous for a bookshelf in a game. I personally would allow the shelf to be up to a few thousand tris depending on how important it is... but if less important probably as low as 100 tris. Give it some thought :)

It's not imported i made it from scratch.I wanted to make it detailed.So what can i do to get rid of the bug?

I'm not 100% sure what I am looking at. Can you describe "flashing" a little more? Is the material transparent and/or 2-sided? It could play a role. If the bitmap is semi-transparent but you don't want it to be at export, the best thing is to go to the bitmap node and chose none/opaque for the alpha setting. Also, you can go to global ww settings and turn on option for Force Opaque VMT if Model $opaque ... then update your WWMT helper to have the $opaque setting. In either event, you'd need to re-export the VMT.

No the texture is not transparent.For example a simple white texture applyed on the object is "flickering", i think this is actualy the correct term do describe not flashing.
I does exactly what happens in this video.

I made some 3d models and the textures are flashing.What did i do wrong?They do the same thing in the game.

I don't undestand what exactly i need to make func_detail.I saw something about func_detail on other forums but i don't know what exactly should be converted.

While compiling the map wich is not big at all vis stops just before the 9th step of portalFlow.What does vis really do cause if i run the map without it the map still works.And what can cause it to be so slow?There are no leaks in the map btw i already checked for that.And what's the limit of props i can use in a map?I got about 20 props and i will need to use a lot more.About 600 prop_static i will need.

The second image shows the correct layout in Slate.

So can you post a screen shot of the texture in game... as I am confused about your intent. The diffuse bitmap is white/gray... which is what you should get in game for this material.

I works now after the last WWMT update.Before it showed in game just like in hammer.

You will need to make a screen shot of your material in the Material Editor. Use the Slate Material Editor and take a screen shot of the Material and the Bitmap nodes coming into it.

There it is http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/3315/71226923.jpg if this is what you meant.

Yeah i did that.When i change something to a model i reexport both the model and the textures.

I am using JPG files as textures.I'm gonna try tga to see how it goes.

It does the same thing only now it's brighter.Probably from the diffuse.

Can you link me a tutorial on how to texture in 3ds ?

I am trying to export a model with 3 textures.The model works just fine but it has no textures in game or in hammer.They appear white.Any ideea why?

Is it possible to see the exact materials used in the creation of a model?I got a model and i want to see how exactly the materials used to make it are set.

But how did you do it?

Actualy the other object is still divided in polygons.i tried what you sayd but it doesn't export the object that is divided in polygons.
