I have created a walkthrough that essentially travels around the exterior of my building model. The walkthrough is in the Site file that has the building file linked. The exterior walls have a stone veneer that should appear as a light brown or tan, but for some reason in the walkthrough they appear as black. All of my other materials show up fine. Most of my materials are custom materials I have created, but I don't think this is the issue because only one of the materials is not showing up correctly. I would think they would all have a problem if it was because I created the materials. Also, the stone veneer appears correctly in every other view, just not the walkthrough view. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Have you checked to see if the material is actually has an accurender material assigned to it? This is more often than not the main cause this problem. If it does make sure that it has the correct settings for it. Otherwise I'm not sure what else could be the problem.

Elmo,
Thank you for your suggestion. I finally figured the issue out. Under the Material itself there is the surface pattern and the below the pattern there is a color. The color defaulted to black, which is why the material was displaying as black. When I changed this RGB to match the accurender assigned RGB of the material it displays properly in my unrendered walkthrough. Thanks for taking the time to respond to my question!
