Hello, could you please assist me with a following issue:
I can’t save materials in Project manager, drag and drop from Slate material editor doesn’t work, and those buttons in the project manager user interface are grey and inactive. Also I can’t copy-paste materials from the Scene materials tab.Plugin version: 3.20.25
3ds Max version: 2020/2022

You can’t add new materials to scene materials in this way.
You should use the material library file to add new materials from the SME

P.S. Huge respect for Ukrainian symbols on the website, take care!

Hey,
Is this the same in Max 2024? I’ve always saved materials by dragging the wire out node from the SME to a library in Project Manager.
I’m using the latest version of Max 2024 (updated yesterday) and V-Ray 6.1
Thanks

This a logical 3ds max restriction for all versions – of course, you can’t add new materials directly to the scene materials, because it doesn’t material library file.
To add a new material to the scene, you should assign it to the object.
