 No I'm not, It's good to know that the TMD file does not include the
textures.
Ok, now I'm using a functions from a demo that came with the CodeWarrior 2.
First
I call the "void ProperInitialiseTexture (long address, GsIMAGE* imageInfo)"
function
and then there is another function called
"u_short SortSpriteObjectPosition (ObjectHandler* object)"
witch I'm not sure what to do with.. (the example, states it's not ready).
I would appriciate if somebody would send me some samplecode, so I could fix
my
errors.
(I always see "something" on the 3d models, but that's always something
strange. I store
the .tim file at (640,0) in the VRAM, that is outside the frame buffers.)

thanks
