I create a new material or open existing one and apply it to an element in 3dsmax but sometimes it looses the path for the maps.
I render a scene and looks fine but when i try to render it again it says it cannot find map etc....?????

I edit material and re-apply the maps and it's fine... until i try to use it in some other scene. this is totally random and for no reason...
has anyone experience similar things?

thanks davy...
yes sometimes it's the case but other times it renders fine first time and then it looses the materials and if i open maxwell material editor it shows missing maps...
i wonder if this only happens with 3ds max or affects other applications.
Anyone else had this issue, is it an old one; and how what solutions did you find?


...so many questions, so little patience

It never happened here. Maybe you've got a slow network connection (or some problem there) and sometimes maxwell cannot retrieve all the maps; just guessing.
