Got this error for the first time ever using SW when the MX Renderer opened.

"ERROR: - object Internal Structure Assem1-6/Steel Internal structure-1/Extrude has triangles without material
</tt>"

What uis the cause - is it that I have used an 'assembly cut' in the model?

Hi Jonathan,

Most likely, see here http://www.maxwellrender.com/forum/view ... highlight= ...I'm still in the process of figuring out what I have to do to make that work.

Looked briefly at the other thread - however the scene rendered as soon as I suppressed the "SW Assembly Cut" features which I had used to trim down some parts in an assembly.

I figured it might have been that as,

- its a very rarely used feature by me

- The cut will be applied external to a SW Part file and so SW might not 'heal' the cut surface of the parts in the way maxwell normally has them presented to it.
