Issue with Viewport

[marco_zanella]

Hello,
hope everyone is having an amazing day.
i have a problem with the viewport..
The texture in the viewport (i am using Node materials) is displaying completely wrong. I took a picture of the screen with the display and option windows (see images, no 2 is after hitting ctrl+s!!!!)
is there any solution? it is quite difficult to work like this...
Best regards
M.Z.

Hello marco_zanella,

I couldn't replicate this issue on my end. Can you send us the scene in question with all assets for it (File>Save Project with Assets) so we can have a look? You can attach the scene to your reply or upload it to a cloud service (such as Google Drive or WeTransfer) and provide us with the download link.

Also, please provide us with more information about your setup: exact Cinema4D and V-Ray versions, OS, are you using V-Ray or V-Ray GPU? Thank you.

Hi Aleksandar Kasabov .
thank you for your kind reply.
I am using c4d r 23 and the latest update of Vray (update 1.2). I am not using the Vray gpu.

Hello marco_zanella,

Upon testing your scene I couldn't replicate this issue. Can you go to your prefs folder and delete the cache folder in it to see if this will help? The folder should be located here:

C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Maxon\Maxon Cinema 4D <version>\prefs\cache

Where <version> would be your Cinema 4D version followed by additional characters. Alternatively, you can access the folder by going to Edit> Preferences> Open Preferences folder as shown in this screenshot. Let me know if deleting the cache folder resolves the issue.

Hello aleksandar.kasabov ,
Just to be sure should i delete these 4 folders?
Thank you
Marco

[aleksandar.kasabov]

No, the cache folder is located in the prefs folder. Please check this screenshot and let me know if deleting the folder helps.

thank you so much aleksandar.kasabov for your kindness
Best
Marco

Hi,
I have similar problems. As soon as the saved scene texture display changed. The rightmost material from the material manager is displayed across the entire object.
Changing texture prev size helps temporarily.

I have a freshly installed system, c4d and vray. So I'm assuming clearing cache here shouldn't matter?

Maybe this problem is related to the problem indicated here?
