Removing Kerky material library

Post by LauraCristescu » Tue Nov 20, 2012 10:35 am

Ok, so i've been playing around in Kerkythea to try and tweak a wood floor material, to get it to my liking, and installed the result in the Twilight material library. But i was thinking, any way to remove that particular mat library from the twilight? Because i imagine if you have too many,it's not a good ideea? So ..anyway to uninstall a material library?

If you are on windows just go to:
C-->Programs(x86)-->Google--> Google Sketchup (the version you have)-->Plugins-->Twilight-->Materials
and delete the mat folder you want. Restart SU then.

Thing is that mat. library i made, does not show there. I can only see the default twilight libraries..

The library was installed via the "install library" tool in TW Material Editor.

I normally install new libraries simply by putting them in the right folder manually and I don't have TWR 1.5 atm so I don't know if that helps, but see if the "0ptions" window tells you something about the location of the mat folders (you have to press the little gear icon in TWR's toolbar). Maybe some hidden folder? "Virtualstore" or something like that?

No "virtualstore" folder either? I think that Windows 7 will put the libraries in a virtual store if you use KT to install the material library from a zipped folder. Maybe it's the same for Twilight?
Type "virtualstore" (with no space) in the search box of your comp, open the folder-->Programs(x86) etc

Nope, nothing like that even comes up in searches.

Because of the whole "virtual store" issue with Windows, we moved the location where material libraries are put when you install them through the material editor. Look in C:\ProgramData\Twilight\Materials.
