ok, for my VC I've created a mainpanel, which is the board the gauges will come on, with its own texture(VCMain_t). Then I've created a new object (the gauge itself) that is slightly in front of the mainpanel which i've named gauges_mainpanel. then I've applied the texture $VCpanelmain (where i've placed my gauges on). All of the objects is attached to the main VC, but when exported, the mainpanel shows up, but not the gauges_mainpanel. BUT when I apply another texture to it, it shows up - with no gauge displaying. What did I do wrong?

My $VCpanelmain texture was 1024 x 1024 resolution, but in the panel.cfg file the texture was set to 512x512. As thgis was the first gauge i've applied, it was simply misplaced, thus not showing up at all. a change in the CFG corrected it!
