In truespace 5.2, I've made a model with an applied texture and bump map. When I close TS and reload the scene, the texture and bump have been removed leaving the default TS material in their place so I have to reapply.

Don't know from the info here, nothing obvious jumps out. Can you Inspect the texture, clear the scene, paint the texture on a cube, save scene, clear the scene, reload the cube scene and see what happens.


Ensure you are saving as SCN and not another scene format.


Can you add the texture paths to the ones tS searches and see what happens?


Do you check with a render to see if the materials show when rendered, or just use the realtime view to see the textures are applied?


What happens if you rebuild the texture a piece at a time - use the texture with just the image, see if you can save and reload. Use with just the bump, see if you can save and reload.


Does this happen with any material for this object? Can you apply a texture with a different image, then one with a different bump, then one with texture and bump combined?


Let us know the results of the above testing, to see if it is object, texture file, path names, material etc that is causing the problem :)


HTH!
