Images missing in materials in Revit 2014

[anvitkrmittal]

I am using Revit 2014. I had used a material in my project which had an image in it. Now, when I transferred the project to a different computer, the material is not visible in the project. Do i need to create the material again and paint the surfaces? Please help !!

transfer the material too into a folder and then:

from Application Menu (R) >Options> Rendering> Additional Render Appearance Paths - Add a new path (+) to that location

Thank you for the information! The only problem now is that my jpegs aren't showing up in the folder. Do they have to be saved as another type of file?

In Options, see if another Path for Render Appearances is set or needs to be changed.

Hmm The pathway box is empty. Looks like the picture you attached.

Select the green Add button, and specify a path to where your maps are located.

I've been clicking the add green button and than adding a pathway but when I get to my materials folder nothing shows up. I've been saving my materials as jpegs in that same folder and they come up in the renderings but not when another team member opens it on his computer to edit. All materials are saved on our shared drive.

The Additional Render Appearance Path must be set on all team member's machines. ( I believe you can automate this during a deployment, or perhaps

in the Revit .ini file on each machine, which could be managed by IT.

I had the same problem. Once you set the pathway to the correct folder, you need to close out any open view and re-open them. Then your textures should appear.
