Title: Segment Texture Missing
Post by: Jasper Veldhuis on July 20, 2020, 01:09:06 PM

Hello there, I've been running into a very annoying problem. Every time I place a segment with a texture over a spline, the segment takes the colour of the wireframe and all the textures are missing. What is going on here? I attached a screenshot.

Please help me, this is consuming so much time.

Hi Jasper,

By default, RailClone doesn't automatically consolidate materials and reassign IDs automatically.  At present you need to create a Multi-Sub object material that uses the same material IDs as set on the source geometry, so the same material applied to both RailClone object and the individual components yields the same results. You can read more about that here: https://docs.itoosoft.com/kb/railclone/why-do-segments-in-railclone-ignore-my-materials

Having said that, if you are a V-Ray user and you have the most recent RailClone versions, then you can use the segment's materials simply by clicking an option in the Style rollout.

I hope that helps,
