Hi Joe,
I've never had the render region not show the textures, but I have had that
with the viewport.
Here's my steps to get it to always show, hopefully they'll fix your render
region as well.
Go Preferences->Rendering and in Image Proxies switch on generate
automatically and set
the max proxy level to 16:1
I think that was all, but I'm not sure.
Thank you to everyone who answered. I determined that PNG files were the
source of the problem. In this case they were 16 bit PNGs (compressed
level 6). I know a lot of programs need at least double the memory to
decompress a file (load the file in, and create a buffer into which to
expand the compressed data). So perhaps it has to do with this.
I switched them to 16bit uncompressed TIFf and they seem to work fine.
