That happend to me AGES ago, so i jsut made a quick bitmap and name it that.

Note: I think that is part of the old darkmatter that doesnt have the SBSP viewer.etc

Correct, get the newer version of dark matter (not the newest, but 2nd newes). You won't have to change anything in it or make any pictures for it :wink: It should be in the H2MC V3 Beta. The one that is supposed to run when you click dark matter in the program doesn't work very well for me, so I suggest you use the version that is inside of the folder "old", which is inside of the dark matter folder.

This is the H2MC V3 Beta (made by Dec1234). As I said before, I don't think that the Dark Matter button works, but if you go into additional, then map tools, then dark matter, then old, you should find a good and working version.

1: arrow keys move the object around, page up and page down move it up and down, and home end and insert (might be delete) flip it around.

You need to move the camera around. use w and s to move up and down, a and d to move side-to-side, i and k to rotate the camera vertically, l and j and l to rotate horisontally.

Also, I only get white dots on XapienC2 also. I think it might be a problem.
