Hey guys, whenever I edit or create a new material it greys out in my library. Then in the editor the preview of the material is totally gone and the box where it normally is is outlined in red. So right now I am unable to edit or create materials. Any Idea what is causing this? Thanks!

Can you render somethings in Live Viewer?

Yes! The live viewer is working ok. It doesnt update materials if I make a change though. It just keeps what material is currently there.

Is it fresh install? Are you sure that you made a correct install? Deleted unneccessary files?

I believe so. I went through that process yesterday. Are there any weird areas where some files could've gotten left? I can try again.

Have you read readme.txt or install notes? Also try to delete prefs folder or oct.dat in this folder with c4d closed. It will reset all settings.
