right well that seem to come up over and over again, the only odd thing that i have found with it is that if a ship has no yexyures on it at all it doesnt diplay at all but this obviously is, my only sudgestion is that you open the .mat file for the ship extract the texture files and check that there there, that they have details on them, that they are square (multipul of , thats all that i can think of off the top of my head but i will have a look at it, also i think they released a patch for voyager that made it work, im not sure tho, ive been busy with other things *evil laugh* hope that helped you in some way.

Ohhhh and to open the .mat use the UTF(Think thts right) editor in the utilites download sections.

errm.. Maverick.. i think you mean the MAT file. That stores the materials (textures) used on that model. The CMP file contains the actual ship's model as well as information on the position of hardpoints. Anyway, you can open up the MAT file in a UTF editor (one is available to download on the main Lancers Reactor site) and export the data of the leaf nodes (likely called MIP0, or MIP5) within the "Texture Library" branch. I've never done it before, but if the node is called MIP0, export, and save it as a .TGA file.. if it's called MIP5, export and save it as a .PDD (i THINK, although not too sure about that). Anyway, good luck making it work, and good luck to Maverick fixing the mod.
