Can you post a screenshot of the VfSU material settings for the tile material?

I won’t hate you, but I’ll laugh a little bit heehee. Just good to hear it’s fixed cos that would’ve been one hell of a bug!

With SU’s infamous loss of focus issue (meaning when you access a menu like the Material or Layers Editors your operating system treats it as a completely separate window rather than a toolbar within the SU window) it’s all too easy to change SU settings by accident. One of the most annoying is when I’ve edited a material setting then gone back to modelling forgetting to click on the SU window to shift focus back again. I use “s” as my hotkey for “select” and I frequently end up with materials called “sssPlaster”, “sConcrete”, ssssChrome", etc. ::slight_smile:

Did you model the roof tiles?
