The left cube is a c4c material (color map only) and the right cube is a Maxwell material with the same color map (which is the map checked to show in the viewport). It renders out fine, it looks much more like the c4d material on the left....just wondering why the Maxwell material shows up in the viewport so much lighter than the c4d material eventhough it renders out correct?

Thanks, I see it. It has something to do with the new color-management features in R12.

Okay, this should be compensated for in the next build. For the time being, you may want to disable Linear Workflow in Edit > Project Settings.

or in attribute manager > document settings
