Hello to everyone I had this annoying situation with revit, i hope someone tell how to deal with that. I have a project in Revit Architecture 2011, inside i have several metal materials of different colors, but all based in the same "render appearance". let me explained: i had various materials named "metal panel-color 01""metal panel-color 02" and so on, but all are based in the "render appearance"of "Flaked Satin - Black" My problem is when i transfer the file to max 2011- with FBX and using the "file link manager". i choose the option of "group by material" (to select all more easy), and there is the problem, all the objects that contained the different metal colors in revit, came united, and under the name of "Flaked Satin - Black", i didn't know why! because in revit all are differents, why transfer like they were the same? also, with the "render appearance"name" and not with the specific names that i use in revit! in the file link manager in max, i also try other options, for example "do not combine" and this time all the objects came independently, but all under the name of the "render appearance", so, all have the same name! so i have to pick every one and start to guess which material are in revit and assign it! So, if someone can explain me some workaround or something i will really appreciated.

Hi, I have the same problem and it seems there is no way to fix it. I hope guys in Autodesk will fix this issue in next FBX plugin update.
