0 Shortnort Posted September 17, 2022 Author Share Posted September 17, 2022 Below is an example of a downloaded project from VW straight from the download. The screen shots are from a drawing sheet showing before and after I Reloaded the views. For some reason textures/materials DO NOT render. I have closed and rebooted my machine, have reinstalled VW twice, etc. Nothing seems to work. I have a feeling it is a graphics card issue, register setting or another setting somewhere that I am not aware of. I had a similar problem when I first got VW2021. I was using Windows 7 and was told that Cineware wa not compatible with that windows version, so I had to use VW 2020. I have subsequently upgraded to Windows 10 (which has been a royal pain by the way) and have been very pleased with VW 2022. Is there a similar issue now with Windows 10? Quote Link to comment
0 Pat Stanford Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Do you have the Textures check box checked in Shaded Options? Quote Link to comment

0 Shortnort Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Thanks for the response. As you can see, the Shaded Options Textures is grayed out. I have not found a way to rectify this. Quote Link to comment

0 Shortnort Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Thank you. Yes, I had read those comments. I rebooted, but nothing changed. I then re-installed VW23 - same issue. Rebooted again - nothing changed. This is so frustrating. It seems that whenever I get ANY updates to software, etc. I run into a myriad of issues. I thought I would never get Windows 10 to recognize my network drives - Windows turned off auto detect for some reason. I am thinking that possibly the issue with VW23 is a setting in the registry.
