Metal problem

Post by Stinkie » Sat May 24, 2008 11:29 am

This is a new one for me: when I choose a metal and render, the object that has the metal mat applied to it, renders as diffuse mat.

It's driving me nuts. Help me! While you're at it, could you lend me a fiver? :)

Stinkie,
Strange, I never experienced this before....
Have you tried applying the metal mat again?

Yeah. I'll mess with the file some more today, and see where that leads me.

When moving a SU file from one PC to another, it can happen that the metals need re-assignment.
(Something to do with the path to the .nk data).

Yup, that's it. Thanks!

BTW, and totally OT: if you ever need extra RAM, make sure to check out BackOfice in Berchem ("Bààrchoém"). Cheap!
