When using the arch and design material, i get an error message when trying to select a template (metals, finishes, etc.)
I get this message in the script window:

-- Error occurred in Set_mrArchTemplate_ActiveMaterial_FromMaterialInMatlib(); filename: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\VIZ2008\stdplugs\stdscripts\meditfunctions.ms; position: 4703
-- Frame:
-- mrArchTemplate_ActiveMaterial: Material #25:Arch___Design__mi
-- strMtlName: “satined varnished wood”
-- matFromLib: undefined
-- Error occurred during fileIn in StringStream:"MeditUtilities.Set_mrArchTemplate_ActiveMaterial_FromMaterialInMatlib mrArchTemplate_ActiveMaterial “satined varnished wood”—LOC_NOTES: do not localize this”
-- No “"getPropNames"” function for undefined

I already tried replacing it with the same scrpit file from another computer. It works fine on the other one but im still getting this problem.
Thank you.

Hi man!! I had that problem too… To solve it just copy and overwrite this material library file “mrArch_DesignTemplates” into the material libraries folder and thats all.... you can find a copy of that file in “C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2010\materiallibraries” of a 3ds max installation that is working… Hope it solve your problem!! cheers!
