Material from Vectorworks comes in as a black void of sorts. Why?

When I use datalink, most materials are imported properly but in this example, they’re showing a darker finish and none of the settings seem to fix this. See image, hard to describe.

How can I get the material to show properly? I have tried the following:

  • changing material
  • toggling or adjusting material settings
  • Change texture in Vectorworks

Hello ,

Thank you for reporting this problem, and I am not sure if this is a know bug but there were similar issues that I think we were able to address in the 2023.1 version. Would you be able to submit a bug so we can best investigate.

Thanks for the reply!

I tried this with 2023.1 Preview 2 and still the same. I submitted a bug report as well.
