HI All, I've got another topic I'm stumped with.
OK, so I downloaded some materials from the Kerkythea website 'Materials & Models' section and unZipped the folders into my SU TR Materials folder.
Some of the newly added Material Tabs show up in the TR Library, but some don't. How come ?
Each of the folders contain <FILE>.names, <FILE>.previews, <FILE>.xml, <FILE>.txt, and some .JPGs. I did notice that the in the default TR Material folders there is also a <FILE>.desc file, which isn't in the downloaded Kerkythea Materials materials folders; would this make a huge difference? then how come some of the new folders showed up anyway?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Nik

- See how the Folder files compare with what shows up in the TR Materials Library.

Check the folder names of the missing libraries. As a rule of thumb, they should be identical to the names of the zip files they came in.

Aha,
I found out that if I rename the file names the same as the folder names (especially the <*>.xml files)then the Materials Will show up in the TR Library.
Another puzzle solved!
Thanks Miguel,
Nik
