Appearance Issue
Appearance Issue
(OP)
Hi All,
Having issues with my appearances in Solidworks. Metal, Plastic, and Rubber appearances are showing up as black. The attached image is a new file (default part template) set to high gloss blue plastic with a standard scene no modifications whatsoever.
Appearances such as cloth and concretes and car paint show up fine.
I've updated my drivers (Quadro 4600), and repaired my install. Anybody ran into this?
Thanks

There's actually nothing wrong with using a driver from the nVidia site but usually the latest and greatest from their site have not been approved by SolidWorks.
It's usually best/safest to start with the approved driver listed at http://w
nVidia often has Beta drivers listed, but they should only be used as a last resort. Having said that, I used a Beta version once with great success.
