      Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Podium from fresh?

      Save the Earth, it's the only planet with chocolate.

        I seem to recall having had a similar issue when exporting a model using the free Google SU with only the standard material package installed... (the package, which is installed together with GSU)

        I suggest you download the Materials Bonus Pack and try seeing how this will work...

        Cheers

          Juju, may have to try that.

          Frederick, I'm using the Pro version and I did install the bonus pack.

          Thanks guys.

              Could it be that your textures are placed in a folder or sub-folder (meaning the entire string) containing a non-standard letter..??
              (something outside the English alphabet...)
              I'm guessing here, since I can't grasp why you can't make this work... πŸ˜•

                  Sepo, I'm running the windows version.

                  Frederick, the textures is coming from the materials folder under the SU program folder. No unusual characters in the folder name.

                  Thanks again guys. Ben

                      OK... Then I'm out of ideas... 😐
                      I'm sure Sepo will be able to help you out here...
                      Perhaps you should take his advice and continue this on the Podium forum... πŸ˜‰

                                See the post two places up from yours...

                                For the uninformed (i.e. those of you that don't check previous posts), this was using the Podium rendering software available for SU. A recent decision by management to throw all the toys into one basket and let you sift through it yourself resulted in the forum as it is now, somewhat overwhelming and disorganised.

                                Save the Earth, it's the only planet with chocolate.
