.mtl file not loading

Yet another thread inquiring as to why a .mtl isn’t loading with an imported OBJ file. How do you fix this?

Hello - one thing we’ve encountered is that some mtl files include RGBA colors - Rhino is looking for RGB colors and bails when it sees four numbers. These are now supported in V7 but in V6 you’ll have to modify the mtl file in a text editor to remove the last number if colors are given as RGBA:

Kd 1 1 1 0.75

should be

Kd 1 1 1 

If that is not it, please post an example here or to tech@mcneel.com, with a link back here in your comments.
