Materials not carrying over to other map folders

OBlastradiusO

My materials won't update in the other folder components like specular, gloss,etc. Any reason why?

EDIT: The grouped material won't carry over.

Any answers?

Hi!

could you elaborate a bit? Do you mean if you have for instance albedo channel selected and make a change nothing happens in normal/spec so on so on?

Alos what machine/Ps version/Suite version are you running?

OBlastradiusO

Hiya! Yep that's exactly it sry for not being clear. The PS version I have is PS6 with the latest version of the suite.

I've had issues where some layers simply disapears in some components, but you can still see your layers under all components?

As it is suppose to work you can change reflectivity and blending mode individually for each component, but the dynamasks should be applied on alla of them.

A good example is the Mossy rock smart material. I load that up but the stone component will not transfer to the other folders. The moss component will transfer however. Here's was i'm talking about.

Yeah that is the same problem i had before! for me it was only from time to time though, you have this issue with all materials? A clean install might help a bit, but it is a known bug and being worked on!
Sorry for any inconvenience this is causing you!

Ah I didn't know you were part of the Quixel team and thanks for the suggestions! As for the other smart Mats I didn't try most of them yet and the ones I did try didn't have a problem with. The problem is the Mossy Rock one however.

Sorry for the confusion I've been trying to change my profile picture for quite some time but it seems to reset. I'm getting help now from a moderator so hopefully it will be the end of the confusion soon

It would be greatly appreciated if you let me know if you find this problem anywhere else, and hopefully you can still enjoy the tool while this is being mended!
