Flamingo nXt

easy rendering for Rhino in Windows

Rendering error sometimes when using linked blocks... Might be a rhino issue, not sure.

I'm having an issue where some linked blocks (from another file) render black instead of the correct material. If I explode the block instance, the object renders correctly. See attached images for a comparison between linked block instance and then exploded.

Ryan can you post a small set of 3DM files that show the problem?

This is odd!  Setting up the simple file lead to some troubleshooting. The problem occurs only after rotating the inserted block.

I.e. if inserted in the "proper" orientation, the mirror renders perfectly. If rotated after insertion, the stainless renders black.

See attached.

Hi Scott... Any progress on this? Is it in fact a bug or have I done something wrong?

Yes there has been.  We were able to fix it.  Currently we are re-working the service release to include the fix.

Do you have the commercial install?  The patch will not install over the Beta version
