2011 doesn't seem to read colorbooks correctly.
The search path is there. It loads the CB ok.
Is there some conversion necessary for v2010 products?

Where did you place the files?
Is that where Options>Files tab setting is looking for them? Post a
screenshot of that tab expanded.

Here's a shot showing it loaded and compared with ACA09 colours.
Also fine in ACA2010.
Benjamin Moore look ok
Some Pantone look ok. Others weird. No perhaps they're ok. Same as 10
anyway.
Resene all bad
Sherwin all bad.
Something fixed. Something broken. Sigh!

The vertical slider?
I have the free Pantone, SW and BM loaded, they look the same as always
here. BM AC looks like yours, but no "colorbond" here per your post where
you seem to be having issues. Maybe that's where the problem is?

Sounds like a graphics card issue to me Nathan. Are you using the same 3dconfig setting in 2011 as in 2010? Have you updated the xml database?

I have been having the same problem with my old colorbooks. While searching I found a thread in the civil 3d forum where people are having the same issue. http://discussion.autodesk.com/forums/thread.jspa?
I've reposted my pic here if anyone wants a look. It seems to me autocad is just plain screwing up the values rather than it being a graphical issue. What did you mean RE: 'updating the xml database' ?

Would appear they have updated the colour book definition.
Be great if they have a tool to update existing ones.
Might be because of the changes to the materials and rendering engine.
Hi Elmato, where did you get the colorbond list from. Yours looks
official.
Mine I made up.
