Unfortunately it is not working this way as well ;(

It's just black everywhere... The materials preview, the render view window, nothing happens dealing with any of the redshift items. I've added different types of light sources, I've added a light materials, I've added different types of object materials, I've messed inside the render settings. Really getting sick of a black screen and unhelpful web searches for an answer.

The best way I've found to fix the black previews is to make a change in the texture, or if you select Render All Materials, that seems to fix it sometimes, too.

the most annoying thing is that if you have the renderview on, it won't update the materials

Quite a bit late, but I've come to have a different problem - its all black, but only when "Sphere" or "Default" is selected as the preview object. Redshift also complains about "The preview scene does not contain the preview object!" any time I open any material that's using those two object views.

Doesn't work - The 'Auto Refresh Previews' Option is already checked by default. Back to the drawing board

Try: View -> Material preview -> Attribute panel. Now it may refresh, artleast it did for me and sometimes I double clicked the materials to refresh.

I had this problem for a few hours. it looks like finally resolved it self by just deciding to finally render the material previews.. after a few restarts for other reasons..

hey man thanks for the tutorial, having problems why my material preview is not showing the default environment.. any suggestion

On my system, Auto Refresh does not work if the RS render view is active. I have to turn render view off and re-render the material previews manually, either by double-clicking them or using the menu function. But maybe that is just a glitch on my system.

That is correct. It does not run if the RV is running.

@@ProfessionallyIncorrect One example: if you use colored lights in the scene, the material is going to look different in the RV than in the material preview. I'd rather have both views. Other material node systems give you a preview of each individual node, so I don't think having one at the end of the node tree in RS that is kept updated is too much to ask for.

Yea I guess RS can only use 1 IPR window at the same time, it looks like its a C4D thing not a RS thing. Maybe only happens with the latest versions of RS+C4D because I had it working also before. They mentioned it in the forum. And yes it sucks! I want to be able to refresh my shaders while a using IPR. My scene now has 100 shaders and would be useful to glimpse at the shaderballs and see what shader it is without needing to read the name. Also every time you change any parameter while using the IPR the swatch goes black. So after a while all your swatches are black which is very annoying. Hope they fix this soon.

Thanks for the tip ! This is really a stupid issue :/

tell me about it. If they cant fix it.. it must be something deep in the programming and this problem is the result of many important processes that trying to alter them is a bigger problem.. so the lead programmers are like "meh" actually compared to what you are getting this is such a trivial issue man.. give us a break!!" and so it remains!

Hello, maybe you know how to fix the black screen issue with render view?

In case this helps anyone, this happened to me and I was going crazy trying to figure it out, and the problem turn out to be I had just turned off the lights and forgot! It can happen! ;)

what if they all went black and none of these things fix it?

My drivers are up to date but the material is appearing red.

typically that is from a bad connection in the material graph.

What version of RS are you using? I noticed you do not have the IPR on and it is still doing it. I would update RS if you can. Here is a video I did on the same exact subject kzread.info/dash/bejne/YquF3Lpsk7XYm5M.html

I was using 3.0.22 on mine and never had the issue unless I was using the IPR, which is the known limitation, and the reason we did this video in the first place :D
