Hi. When I render my site, the cars are coming across as completely grey. What do I need to adjust to have these come in with the correct materials and colors. The people are the same way. Any helpful hints would be appreciated! Thanks!

Most of the cars are autocad models imported into Revit hence applying Materals to them are not as simple as applyin materials to revit models. the are 2 ways i apply materials to them 1. Open The car from the Metic Library from the drop down menus go to -Settings/Object style a dislog box opens Click the 'Import DWG' tab Here the layers in which the Car components were created in autocad will be listed and you can now apply materials to each layer 2 As soon as you insert the car to your scene Goto Settings/materials there will instantly be some new materials added to the material list these represent the componets of the car so you can now apply materials to them note that you should have checked the material listing before loading the car into the project

Your people are rendering grey as you haven't setup up your rendering locations to include the folder containing the RPC people. Check this has been set.
