Keep having to re-map materials to images.

[philvanderloo]

I thought I would only have to do this once but I guess I'm missing a step.

When I download materials from vray-materials-de, I go into each image and re-direct to my local folder. I close the program and save the material library.

But every time I re-open max I have to re-direct the material images again.

How do I make them stay put?

What is your local folder? Do you copy the textures to that folder? Have you made sure max knows to look for textures in that folder? Go to Customize -> Customization -> Configure User Paths -> External Files, press the Add button, and browse your texture folder/local folder and add that. Now max should know where to look for your textures, and you should no longer have to browse for the missing maps.
