Yep-- pink. What material are you using? Is it a legacy (ar4 or ar3) material?

Try to attach a copy of the .ArMaterial file here-- use the Upload Files link on the bottom of the reply area. It's possible you may have to zip up the file first.

This one is just a standard tile pattern, pretty easy to edit.
To edit the copy in your drawing, bring it up in the editor. In the Material Tree section, select the "Base" branch. Click on the color swatch to get the full color picker. If you want to keep this material for other drawings, save it out to a file somewhere.
Attached is a material file which I've edited to make the color darker.

Thank you. You can see in the attached picture that the colour is much improved. Not bad for a few minutes.

The Wallpaper on the left has an interesting structure, maybe it would look even better, if you make the texture seamless + applying a little bit of depth, e. g. with highpass - filter in PS?"

Will test 'Automesher LT' (developed by Automapki), if I run into troubles again.

"Good day,
I searched the former forum posts and found another option to solve this problem which is another plugin to autocad-----AUTOMAPKI. You can give it a try."

3ds +obj import works for older files-'xfrog-plants', for instance... .Comments + Critics appreciated!Hopefully accurender still survives!
"Found 'Textured Mesh Support' only works with obj and 3ds Files which do not contain PBR Maps.
To 'obj' converted newer 3ds do not render in nXt :-("
