found a link to this and it appears to be limited to 3DS MAX only, as C4D does not destroy the materials in an upgrade thus sending you back to stone age in projects.

When upgrading to 3DS MAX octane render 3.0 from 2.x all the materials become default white with no textures linked.

same happened from 1.x to 2.x

Am I missing something?

PS. I know this is demo forum but it was beyond my attentionspan trying to figure out how to post in proper forum
