A few problems while loading the library (with the ArchiCAD 15 Library):
1. There are 2 copies of the file "Master_GDL_MyMaterials.gdl" resulting in a Library Report error.
2. There are about 16 missing textures that are called for in the Master_GDL_MyMaterials.gdl file, leading to multiple errors when loading the library. These textures do not show as part of the added materials (they are used for the define texture "TextureXX" part of the script), so I am not clear on their use. Report:

The non-english parameters limit the market (and my understanding of their intended use), but that may not matter for your intended purpose.

A problem while loading the library with the ArchiCAD 15 Library: There is still a missing texture that is called for in the Master_GDL_MyMaterials.gdl file, leading to multiple errors when loading the library. Report:

Also, a pop-up list rather than the On/Off switch for certain options (for example Flushlie-Flushfront hjõrne > Flushfront (on) Flushline (off)) would be a better interface choice for those types of options.

The Custom Settings panel is cropped when this side of the dialog box is minimized in width.

The non-english parameters limit my understanding of their intended use.

Not a thorough review but HTH,
