Materials not loading

Yes, the prop is called " The Conference Room" from Daz

I tried the same prop on work computer. Windows 10, Daz 4.9, Nvidia Driver 365.10, GeForce GTX 980, Quadro K4000, Octane Plugin Demo 2.24.2.4. Works fine. I can close out of Daz, restart Daz, open scene, render in Octane and all materials render fine. Something about my system at home is wacky. Any ideas?

If this is the only prop this problem happens with, I would say there is something not right about that prop's base material folder specification (in the .duf) which is causing the problem. I would need the prop to investigate further.

Not sure if it is prop-specific, as I'm getting exactly the same problem with the Rural Chateau by Jack Tomalin.

Not only diffuse, but also bump maps aren't loading upon relaunch of DS.

I can send you the prop. How shall I send it? attached is the octane log portion. Can't see the whole log. I checked, and the textures are in that location.

[morphious2013]

Well, I was wrong. The textures were NOT in the folder Octane was looking in. I never use the "My Library" folder, and I have no Idea why it is looking to that folder. Maybe these older prop installers default to that library path even though they are installed in your own personal library folder. UGH. So, I installed the prop in the folder octane was looking in, and now there is piece in my world.

I had the same problem with the DAZ cyclorama prop.
The log stated missing texture files in a folder completely out of scope (something like <user>\documents\....)

I ended up erasing that assigned material completely in the Octane materials tab (can't remember exactly the steps, sry) and let it import fresh from the scene. Since then it works, before and after reloading the file.
