I'm having an issue with smart materials loading in as tiny pixelated tiles that fill my maps. I've tried different materials, Texel Densities, Resolutions and models. Same issue. Seemed to work fine a few days ago. It was working okay the other day. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? See screenshot.

I can change the attach options to "Do not modify Material or IDs" when I attach manually... but those attach options don't exist in maxscript?

I've been playing around with mental ray materials trying to replicate the Red ring in the image, However I can't seem to figure it out, everything I've tried has come out looking too bright and lacking the proper material properties. So I'm wondering if anyone has any idea how to make it? Thanks in advance!
