Saving assembly file under new name looses all settings...?

Saved my "studio setup" assembly under a new name -rendered - nothing.

Checked "Scene Data" - everything is diffuse! Looked in the Maxwell materials section - everything is gone!

Known bug? I did something wrong?

P.S. Somebody else please post something - I feel like I'm hogging the SWX forum...

Hi Mike :D

In the folder of your assembly you will find two files which contains the maxwell data. The name of this files is the same that the name of your assembly and the extension is mxm (maxwell materials) and mxd (maxwell data). When you save your assembly with a new name this files are not renamed automatically, this is a known bug that will be fixed. To restore your scene data just copy this two files to the folder where you assembly is placed and rename both with the new name of your assembly. The next time you open the Maxwell Property manager you will see that your data has been restored.
