I want to know if this is just me. I was working on the Palm Beach scene that I made. I decided I wanted the preview to be of better quality. So I hit the textured option. Nothing happened. I waited, still nothing.

I closed that scene. Then I opened a new one. I placed a sphere in the scene. I applied the checkers preset. It instantly showed the texture in the view. Then I changed the resolution of the texture from within the Interactive Render settings. It updated the changes.

The only way I can get my Palm Beach file to use a specific rendering mode is to set those options then save it. When I reopen it they work. However, it wont recognise other setting. Meaning if I set it to 512 texture size and save all is fine when I reopen, but if I then try to set it to a lower resolution, nothing happens.

I am using a 6800GT.

What also is strange is once I open this file and try to adjust the settings, the setting dont work right for subsequent scenes. The simple sphere scene that was working properly and allowing me to change interactive render settings now will not work. But if I close Carrara and create a "new" sphere scene the settings are fully adjustable. I believe this is some kind of bug but I would like to hear from others.
