    ---------
    I am having a problem with GetFirstMaterial with 9.5.
    I broke my code down to the simplest form:

      
BaseDocument* doc = LoadDocument(fn,FALSE,NULL);  
if (!doc) return FALSE;  
BaseMaterial* mat = doc->GetFirstMaterial();

    and mat is always NULL.
    The debugger reports the value for mat\BaseList2D "CXX0030: Error: expression cannot be evaluated"

    fn is a valid filename and does contain materials.

    I am using vc6.

    Is this a problem with 9.5 or am I missing a step or something?

    The correct sintax is:_<_h4_>_

    Similar "LoadFile" but this time the document isn't put into the editors list of documents and you have control over the document_<_h5_>_> _<_h5_>_eturn

    Unlike older versions without this argument, the loadflags look to be necessary. Have you tried SCENEFILTER_OBJECTS or SCENEFILTER_MATERIALS for the loadflags argument?

    As I'm supporting older versions with older SDKs, I hadn't noticed this change (new to R9.5 for sure!).

    LOL
    I can't tell you how many times I looked over LoadDocument in the 9.5 sdk docs and never realized that "Bool show_error" had been replaced with "LONG loadflags".

    Thanks guys. It's working now.
