Metal Material turning green in render mode - viewport

Hello,

I have opened my file this morning to find that all metal materials have turned green in my viewport during render mode. There is currently no problem when rendering but I am needing to use the viewport - render mode.

I was wondering if I have accidentally changed a setting or some sort. I have tried to create the material again and reapply it but I am still having the same problem.

Any suggestions are appreciated or if I have missed a similar query please share.
As always, thanks for your help in advance.

can you post a file with what is in this image?

Hi @theoutside

Here you go:

We Transfer

I’m not sure if We Transfer is allowed but my file is too large despite deleting parts that are not related to this question.

If I transfer the bits to a new file, the material comes back normally.

Thanks!

odd… opens fine here- both rendered and raytraced

may be worth doing a select all, then copy and then paste it into a new blank file and see if there is just some random weirdness in this file that is causing the problem.

Thanks for checking it out @theoutside

anytime- hope it behaves for you going forward.
