The ava cache is on the Z partition. Try deleting your current screensaver3d.x from there and rebooting ava.

Also people check this program out

oh hey i got it work for me but i sux at 3d modeling so its just a sphere... lol but Jbone told me to use "Pandasoft Directx exporter" (plugin for 3ds max) and it works great... for a hint dont make it very big as it would be huge and uncheck anamation in the export settings

a nice Supra

The size in comparison to the one originally in the cache is much bigger, but still seems to work fine... Once i get me head round this i will reduce size..

Be nice in the future if you could download models to the box as we do skins and also being able to select which model we want..maybe even a Random saver ??

didn't know this feature would get looked at any much, so it's not _really_ tested well. It was one of those "hey it works, cool" and we never looked back at it.
It's quite basic, the logo itself is stored inside the xbe, but it is actually a .x file as well. But before loading it , it checks for an optional x file iirc. It doesn't look twice at textures, but it might need normals, dont really recall.

want more stuff like this ?

Nice man, but could you consider making dragon.x a LITTLE bit smaller? it takes ava like 5 minutes to load it!
