Saving materials problem.

[popek]

Hello,

I have a strange problem that is driving me nuts whit vray.
When i save my SU model and re-open it later i notice that my materials dissapear.
For example i was rendering hardwood floor, everything was ok until i saved my model to work on it later.
When i opened my model later and rendered it again the floor changed color to a basic gray...
This happens whit other materials too.

All my options in vray are set to default.
my vray version is 1.48.93 AND SU 8.

I will post pictures to make the problem more clear...

First thing to do when you experience problems with any software is to check that you have the latest version. Latest VfSU is 1.49.01. Before attempting any kind of debugging one need to make sure it's not been fixed already.

Looks like the update fixed the problem.

Hi,
it's good that you have solved saving materials problem with updated version,but you can meet another problem in 1.49 version - when you hit render,you might get error notice that program meets problem and can't render - in this case - click okay,and close your file without saving your model,because if you save file after receiving this error message,your material settings might disappear. it's bug so save your file before you hit render command
