Weird stuff happening when importing Bryce OBJ - Newbie

I'm having a problem importing the Daz 'Bryce Coach' model (which comes with an OBJ and textures) in DS.


Steps:

I bought the Bryce Coach and extracted and placed the .OBJ, .MTL files and the texture folder into their own folder;

I then opened DS, selected IMPORT and then selected the coach OBJ; in the subsequent import window, I left all settings except I set the ‘From:’ section to Bryce.

The Coach imported … but is not visible (only the bounding box is visible); however when mouse-overed I see a complete highlighted wire-frame of model. I even added a light nd still no shaded version.

It looks like it found all the textures: The texture image shows in the 'Diffused Color' section of the 'Surfaces' tab.

Even rendering doesn’t bring it out.


Thanks for any help!

    The surfaces all come in with the opacity set to 0%. If you go to the surfaces pane and select the materials you can change the opacity to 100% and the bus will show up.
