Losing a particular material

[Alejandro Testa]

Hi guys, I  am working on a model and  when I close Autocad restart Autocad open the model again and  I lose a particular material, the only solution I got is to reload this material. I tried to remove materials from objects and nothing happen.  This happen at least in 6 opportunities always the same material  is gone.  Autocad 2008 32 bits. Windows XP Pro

Regards,

Alejandro

[Alejandro Testa]

Hi Akin, here is the material, is from the old library El Dorado Stone.

Can we have the material?

[Alejandro Testa]

I already sended, look at the previous post.

Do you lose the actual material from the drawing? (i.e. does it disappear from the list?) -- OR -- do you lose the material assignment? (i.e. the material needs to be reapplied.)

[Alejandro Testa]

The material asignment, the material is still on the list.

This seems to be happen only on AutoCad 2008, am on 2010 and no problem, material in the list and still attached to the object/ layer.

I believe it is like the RPC problem some while ago.

I will wait for Roy comment. If is an 2008 issue maybe is time to study the next move. 64 bits changing OS and a newer Cad version.

If possible-- I'll need a simplified example drawing showing the problem. Provide a very specific procedure for reproducing it. You can zip up everything needed and send it via the Support->Upload a File link above.

Hi Roy, I simplified the model and everything works fine, so this problem only happen with the complete model I think. This model is about 14 MB. Tell me what to do. Regards,

Alejandro

Send the model + instructions using the Upload a File option. Be sure to include any required xrefs, etc..

[Roy Hirshkowitz]

No instructions-- so I just brought the thing in and rendered. Is this what I should be getting?
