3ds Max :: Names Of Materials Don't Show In Compact Material Editor

May 13, 2011

How to make the name of a material show up in the Compact Material Editor? For instance, if I double-click on a standard material, and put it into the first material slot, the name stays "Default-01" instead of "Concrete_brown_stucco" (for instance).

This isn't a BIG deal but it's just one more thing to slow the workflow down !

3ds Max :: Can't Reset Material Slots In Material Editor

Feb 28, 2011

Im on Max 2011 with sp1 and the latest hotfix installed, working with vray 1.5 sp5. When i try to re-set mu material editor (compact not slate) i get the folllowing error message

"Runtime error: cannot assign undefined to material editor slots" and a Macro_media utilities window opens with the following script

macroScript clear_medit_slots
enabledIn:#("MAX", "VIZ")
category:"Medit Tools"
internalCategory:"Medit Tools"
ButtonText:"Reset Material Editor Slots"
tooltip:"Reset Material Editor Slots"
[code]....

I'm not a scripter but it seems that there is no material defined to place into the slots on re-set. I've recently had a problem with my material editor not giving me acess to slate as i had loaded up my 2010 menus into 2011 but i've since re-installed max and vray and am still getting this.

3ds Max :: Saved Material Libraries Not Loading Materials

Aug 31, 2012

I use a few material libraries I have saved quite often. I spent some time yesterday tidying up as well as creating new ones and saved them out.

However now they are not loading up any of the materials when I click on the tab in the Material Browser. The same libraries are working fine on the machine next to me (my colleagues machine).

I've tried saving them out on his as another name and opening a new material library, however they are still not showing up.

Photoshop :: 3d Materials Editor?

Sep 25, 2008

Regarding photoshop cs4 win extended.

I'm trying to find out some things about the 3d materials editor

The adobe site video called "3D object and property editing" was no help in answering the following.

Does it have a procedural texture generator?

If so, then does it have some procedural texture presets?

Can you modify and save procedural texture presets?

If there are no procedural textures.

Then what are the materials, vectors graphics? bitmap?

3ds Max :: Instancing Materials In The Slate Editor

Mar 15, 2011

When working on materials in Slate's "View" panel it's easy to shift/drag to make a copy of a material component. However, that operation makes a copy, not an instance, and it does not provide a prompt when drag/copying as the Compact Material Editor does. Is there an intuitive method for instancing material components within the View panel in Slate? Sure, I can switch back to the Compact Editor, but it would be better/more efficient to stay in the same material editing work environment.

Regarding Shift/Dragging materials in Slate, there's another odd behavior I'm getting. If I press Control while in the View Panel, a plus sign shows up near the cursor, which I intuit to mean it is in "copy" mode. But, Control/Dragging a material component produces no visible effects (nothing happens). what that plus next to the cursor is indicating?

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Add Custom Materials In Actual Material Properties

Jul 4, 2011

I am looking for ways to add actual custom materials - not (just) in appearance, but in actual material properties (elasticity, etc). I have looked at wiki and searched this forum (and others) but I haven't been able to find anything of the sort... but the properties of the few aluminium alloys available are not those that we use... besides that we need them at specific temperature ranges (and honestly, I haven't been able to find any temperature controls in the FEA yet either.) And.. is there a more direct, faster, way to assign materials then [big I Pro button] > iPropperties > Physical? Right click on the solid and selecting "material" seems so much more ideal.

Revit :: Materials Editor Pattern Selection

May 3, 2013

I'm having difficulty placing a pattern type on my materials.  When I select the pattern from the list that pops up and I click "OK," the pattern selector pops back up and won't let me exit.  I think that if I go back to my original pattern, it will go away.  I've tried restarting Revit and various other matierals in other projects on different types of families in both the surface and cut pattern prompts.How do I chage my patterns?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Compute Materials Lists And Separate Cut / Fill And Material Only Reports?

Dec 5, 2012

I need to run two reports one for Cut and Fill, and one for Materials (shapes). I would like two material lists for the same alignment and sample line group.

The process, setup the materials list for Pave, Base, and Subbase. Generate report, delete list and setup for Cut and Fills, run the report. You do this over and over. Autodesk please add a way to save and import these setups, and a way to create multiple lists for each alignment and sample line group.

Note: Why the Civil 3d default for the interlude into the actual Compute Materials dialogue is Pave, Subbase, Base is beyond me, could someone tell the programmers that Subbase is generally below Base. Each time I have to delete the CIvil 3D defaults and redo this step.

Revit :: Create Asset Or Material Library Out Of Multiple Materials From Project File

Feb 27, 2014

I have a Revit file with over 1,000 materials and associated appearance assets.  It was created in a previous version of Revit before library support.  What I want to do is create libraries from them.  However, the only instructions to add them one at a time using dragging and dropping.  That will take me days to do.  Is there a way to simply create an asset or material library out of multiple materials from a project file at one time without having to individually select them?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Materials Not Showing Up In 2010?

Jan 16, 2012

I am using Autocad Architecture and am attempting to use 3-D for the first time.  The program opens and runs fine, and it allows me to create objects with no issue.  However, when I try to apply materials to an object, the materials do not show up.  The materials/textures tab is turned on, I can see the loaded materials, and the style is set to realistic.  Even when I choose the material option "select objects with this material", it selects them as if the material is applied.  The material does not show up either on screen or when rendered.

3ds Max :: Slate Material / Compact Editor

Jul 11, 2011

We're discovering some sort of disturbing differences in some of the shaders in the Slate versus the traditional material editor. You can find them everywhere, but a good example is the Matte/Shadow/Reflection material. Under Additional Params in the Slate node you'll find more parameters than are in the Compact editor (also what is called the Parameter Editor in Slate). Found no information on these extra parameters. See the attached image. Substance maps are another example of different parameters.

The attached image shows parameters missing.

I've looked all over online and checked out every rollout in the editor and can't seem to find it anywhere... and all the online tutorials (lynda, etc) say they're for 2013 but are really for 2012.
