A. win 10
B. rtx 2060 super + rtx 1060
C. 32gb
F. OctaneRender plugin version 2020.1.5-r4
G. cinema 4d 23.110

issue: when i copy an object from one scene to another it looses vertex map link in the material nodes. the node comes in empty without the vertex map.

here is a video:

seems to only be a problem when using the mix material. if i just use a regular materials, works fine..

here is the cylinder file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2h7gr0lv2gemn ... p.c4d?dl=1

obviously here its easy to link up, but when you have a more complex character with lots of vertex maps driving materials, it's annoying when moving from scene to scene.

prefer Composite materials. No reason to use mix materials anymore. It's the reason that backward compatibility to keep mix materials.
