My sides req.
I know it's not the mesh, because it shows up in the viewer just fine. I also put it in-game as a prop just to test.

SWBFViewer is a generic viewer and wasn't programmed to read msh files the same way the game does. It looks like your msh file might have some garbage data in the material. Double check your scene in XSI for unneeded clusters etc.
