Dissapearing Materials

[clopez]

I have a Su glass material I have created in SU and linked in Vray. However, when rendered the object becomes invisible, what am I doing wrong? The attached image has the entire entry canopy missing, all you can see are columns supporting nothing.

Re: Dissapearing Materials

Yep, this is a bug to do with group heirarchies. Try saving the file, closing it and reopening it- that often works. If it doesn't, try exploding the canopy group and do a quick test render. Sometimes you have to explode all the way down through a heirarchy of groups before the elements will render. The crazy thing is that often you can then just regroup them again and it'll render OK.#

Hope this helps.
