I have been working on a short movie in anim8or, which involves this room. I have a sort of metal/concrete looking texture for the floor. It looks fine when I render it with scanline:

However, when I render it with the ART renderer I get nothing on the floor:

I tried adjusting everything I could think of to fix the problem. I changed the material properties, I replaced the object again, I tried with and without lights, etc... I can't think of anything else. Any suggestions? Is this an actual glitch/bug?
By the way sorry the renders aren't antialiased I did that to save time cause my computer's so freaking slow...When I render the movie I'll be doing it on another computer...:)

Sadly, the ART renderer has an issue with materials. I believe Steve is working on it, but ART tends to mess up when rendering materials. Still, I haven't seen it mess up this badly. Does the floor have any shaders on it? If not I believe it should still render materials correctly.

I don't exactly know what shaders are sorry. I'm sure I should by now. I don't believe so but I don't know. And the faces are the way they are supposed to be. I already tried flipping them too.

Really the floor shouldn't have any ART shaders on it. If it does, I'd recommend you get rid of them. If there aren't any, feel free to send me the file and I'll take a look at it.
