I have a file that I rendered IN ACA 2014, using an older version of NXT, not sure how to tell which build I used.

Roy Hirshkowitz replied to Jeff Waymack's discussion Mapping materials to xrefs"AutoCAD handles the mapping now. It usually survives xref'ing-- though it may behave a little differently than before. Same is true for materials."
