    Default Linked ACA 2008 model materials not showing in 3d Max 2008

    Hi I have just started using '3D Max 2008' at my company, when I link Architectural Desktop file to 3D Max and than try to render it, I get the following messages:.

    Missing External File
    BENEDITI.TGA
    GRID.TGA
    BRNBRICK.TGA

    Basically none of the materials applied in Architectural Desktop are imported to 3D Max, can someone please help me solve this problem.

    Regards

    Welcome to AUGI and congrats on your first post!

    You most likely will need to "Configure User paths" (found on the Customize menu pulldown) to point to the location of those image files used for the materials in ACA.
