map is grayed out...

[themaxxer]

hello all

I have a strange problem since a few days. in 3ds max 2016 the normal map is missing suddenly. and in a material from my library it's grayed out. image

all I have done is installed 3ds max 2017 but I don't use it in production because I have to install all needed plugins first.

is there a way to get the normal map back? in the map roll out it's missing too... http://c2n.me/3EEzaTp.png


I have other 3ds max 2016 installed, so I could copy/paste the needed dll, or dlr, or whatever... but I need to know where max saves the maps.

thanks in advance for any help.

best regards
manuel

Does it come back if you turn on the "Show Incompatible" option?
