Hello,
I try to install the new corona. Everything is fine during the installation, no error message.

Back in 3dsmax, i try to open the material library browser and an error appears saying:
" material Library is not installed. You have to run Corona installer again to install it. Make sure that the library is selected for installation".

I did it, again and again... it didn't work. I work on C:, path has never change since the begining (corona2) so i don't understand.
Last thing, everything was fine with the material library and corona4.

Thx community for your answer,
Damien

Hi, I had the same problem

I solved it (I think!) by creating the materials folder manually in the corona folder before installation.

If this doesn't work, can you copy the folder from another PC?

Hi,

Are you running the installer as administrator?

Secondly are you using the offline installer file to install the material library?

Are you sure that the material library is selected during the installation? To find out select custom in the installer. I would also recommend running the Corona uninstaller before installing and seeing if this fixes the issue.

Thanks,

Rowan
