    Angry RAC 2009 - Render Appearance images missing

    I am getting the following error when I go to render, "The following render appearance images are missing." Unfortunately, it does not indicate what Render Appearance Material these image files are linked.

    Adesk please give us info we can do something with!!!

    I have inherited this project file, and so I have no idea where to look for the particular materials in question.

    I presume if someone created a Material and linked to an image on their local machine or perhaps to a network location that I do not have access to, that could cause this behavior, correct? I further presume if I could somehow (Adesk can you figure out an easy way to accomplish this for me) isolate the Material itself that is in question, the problem is easily resolved by just changing the image file location for that material.

    Now the big question is, is it really that easy, and if not why not?!!

    Default Re: RAC 2009 - Render Appearance images missing

    Hi John,

    quick way to check which ones are missing is just render the scene on draft or as low as you can get away with. Not guaranteed, but usually, the missing material will render as black, so its immediately obvious which ones are missing.
    Wouldn't tell you how to suck eggs, but does the local office standard have requirements for the local user, to not create their own materials anytime ? or is it a req for one individual who might do viz or preso stuff, allowed to handle that.

    Assume you can isolate the workset or linked file that points to the offending area ? (eg interiors or structural ?
    good luck cheers
