We are experimenting with using shade modes for presentation drawings in cases where fully rendered(Brazil) images aren’t needed. We’re running into problems with textures displaying. We get surfaces that are mapped with an error message that the “image can’t be found” and it shows a path to a local…

You might not have access to that post, here is his answer… Hi @nick , usually this comes up if the default assigned emap cannot be found. You might check for it in this location when running on a 64bit system: C:\Program Files\Rhino WIP\rhino_shaded_mode_emap_background.png or if you´re …

I have “Color & Material Usage” set to “Rendering Material” with “Advanced texture preview” checked. Using 5 SR12 64-bit

In my opinion the missing texture map is likely due to folder access rights or a connection issue with the network drive where you’re storing the image maps. The address for the color channel map in the posted file is L:\DESIGN\BRAZIL\JPEG\METAL\BRUSHED SS 2.jpg I’d make sure the folder on the L dr…

Hi Brian, In my case the texture map was just where Rhino put it when it was installed. There could be a rights issue but since the weird reflection occurred only for a couple of sessions it would seem that there must be some other influence. Nick

I may have misunderstood but the texture map in the material assigned to the objects in the posted file is a custom image. This will be loaded from the location it was originally added from. This is different from an emap such as the one which is by default a part of the shaded display mode.

Brian, This is where it gets confusing to me. The images that are assigned to the material are JPG files and are on our server. However, the error message “can’t find image” that shows up on the surfaces in our shaded viewports point to a PNG file in a cache folder on our local drives. I’ve checked…

[image] James: the error message “can’t find image” that shows up on the surfaces in our shaded viewports point to a PNG file in a cache folder on our local drives. I get the message I pasted earlier only if adv texture preview is off using your display mode. If adv texture preview is on the …

Sorry to confuse things! I had a similar situation: http://discourse.mcneel.com/t/strange-reflection/27164 Nick

Thanks for looking into this Brian. Nick, it’s strange, but I got an access error on your link… The paths: C:\Users\jthompson\AppData\Local\Temp\McNeel\RDK\Texture Cache L:\DESIGN\BRAZIL\JPEG\METAL\BRUSHED SS 2.jpg L:\DESIGN\BRAZIL\ENV\HORIZONTAL GRADIENT 2.jpg The cache folder has 229 files. L…
