Problems with referenced layer colors

I have changed a layer color in a file that is referenced into my base.dwg file. However, when I open the base.dwg file it still displays the layer in the previous color. Is there a way to automatically update the layer attributes in a reference file? or do you have to manually edit each layer attribute in every file that it is referenced into? I'm using Civil 3D 2014.

Try changing the VISRETAIN system variable to 0 and reloading your xref.
