Library Trouble...:-(

Anonymous
Not applicable
just downloaded ArchiCad 14
The problem is that it feels like the colors of the libraries do not match what I get when I use it. The colors are darker. Had not the problem one time I installed ArchiCAD.
Example: Wall Default settings / Model.
Surface-stucco brown
Painting-05
Surface-stucco brown

Everything goes black

Can send pictures shown it helps.

Thanks for the help. Have installed several times in the event of system failure.

It looks like some textures are missing. One thing to look at is the Library Loading Report. Another way to check is to open the Material Settings dialog box and select the Surface-stucco brown material and check the Texture panel.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

opened the Library Loading Report. There were no reports there. Sorry I'm pretty new to BIM when I start the program until August of vocational education in Oslo.
Can not find something wrong in order to solve the problem.
Have changed the signature as you suggested, thanks 🙂

It may be the Partial Structure Display (3D). With the 3D Window in front, open the Partial Structure Display (3D) dialog box and see if Without Finishes is selected. For a View, this is one of the View Settings attributes, called Structure Display.

Thanks for adding the signature, it helps.
