that is a message that gets called when I try to validate a linked material. What I mean by validating is the linked material searches the scene for the SketchUp material you are trying to link to - if it doesn't find it it will say it can't find the native material. Check your V-Ray scene materials for the linked material that might be linking to a non-existant SketchUp material.
