I can not get any materials accept the ones that originally came with Maxwell to work. If I just change the name of a material in the computers explorer, is works just fine. But as soon as I open the material in the material editor and re-save it, even without making any changes (with the same or a different name), I can not choose it from within ArchiCad anymore (I have tried restarting the program and computer). The same problem occurs when I download a material from the web gallery, it exists in the explorer and can be opened/edited in the mxm editor but ArchiCad does not find it..
I have also tried clicking "create new mxm material" from within Archicad, I then get to create an mxm which's path gets saved as to a working material. But when I render the scene anything assigned to that material show up as just gaps as though there was no object there at all. When I try to browse for the material to reload it, it's just not there as with all other non-original materials.
What could be wrong? Do I need to reload the mxm library to ArchiCad somehow? Or could there be an error occurring while saving in the mxm editor?
I am using ArchiCad 17 with Maxwell 3, on a Mac.
