  • Issues with material assignment on variants

    Hi,

    I have lots of issues with material assignment on geometry variants to the point that I can't really use variants with vray. When I assign my materials on individual components everything works fine. When I however use the same componentmaterial notes on variants, and then "explore variants" some geometry subgroups don't get the correct material or no material at all.

    This is the explore variant node and some of the center branches just get the wrong (dark green) material, some get (I guess) no material i.e. look white.



    If I use the same material library and assign it to individual components (i.e. not using variants) using the same type of assignment it looks correct:

    This issue came up repeatedly with all kinds of assets.

    Anyone else experience this? Any ideas?
