How many vehicles do you have in your map? Because there IS a 6 vehicle limit... no matter how many you place in sapien, there will only be 6 different vehicles (ofcourse as many instances of them as you like). If that's the only one or it fits into the 6, then all I can think of is either some shader problems or maybe the bounding radius for the tag.

Did you check all of the boxes that say "Slayer default, Odball default etc etc..." and the ones that say "Slayer allowed, Odball allowed..."? You need to check those.

You made a custom vehilce?I got that problem too.Reopen the map in Sapien and at the gamewindow bottom you wqill see some errors evntuelly about your vehicle like:
"NODE count doesn't match"

I have all the boxes checked, and i have 2 different types of vehicles in the map, and i don't have that problem that patrick stated.

Did you put your vehic tag in a new dir ? If so, replace 1 (or more) of the 6 vehicles tags in globals\globals.globals with yours..
You also might have to change the 'hud text message index' under 'export to functions' in your vehicle tag too, e.g. 50 for testing.. you'll see 'press E to enter <need string here>' changing that to your vehic name is also in this forum.

You have to replace a old vehicle (ghost,banshee etc) So make backups and be sure to replace the mp version.

Another problem you might have is the lod. If you have no lods(level of detail) then in the gbx model tag near the 1/2 through the page (Not sure) It has a gbx section. There youcan set the gbx lod models. I cant double check because I am away from my pc right now.
