Right now, you can only browse the library materials using Windows Explorer. If we could get the DLL called ArMaterial.DLL registered on your machine, then you could see the thumbnails in Windows Explorer and browse the material folders that way.
That is why We need to get ArMaterial.DLL registered for you.
Open a command window in Adiministrator mode.
You can do that by goin to AllPrograms/Accessories and right clicking on Command prompt and then ckicking on Run as Administrator.
Then, go to the folder:
C:\Windows\Sysem32
and type in and enter:
regsvr32 /u ArMatThumb.dll
to unregister the dll. And then type in:
regsvr32 ArMatThumb.dll
and see if you get the same error that you got before.
The "Load from Library" function does bring up a Windows Explorer browser to let you select one material from the disk, so it doesn't sound like you're doing anything wrong.
Also, please try running regsvr32 from an elevated command prompt (right-click on Command Prompt and click Run as Administrator), when you run it as explained above.
It may be that you need Administrator permissions to register the dll.

I must be doing somthing wrong, how do i "Load from Library"
I got a explorer window, and can select only material at the time.
Thomas,
Could you run regsvr32 again, but use the /u option the first time to uninstall the dll, like this:
Open a command window and go to the folder:
C:\Windows\Sysem32
and type in and enter:
regsvr32 /u ArMatThumb.dll
to unregister the dll. And then type in:
regsvr32 ArMatThumb.dll
and see if you get the same error.
well hade a sketchup 7.0 and irender that worked ok, i could browse material.
After upgrade to 8.0 and new updated render the browser does not work, but i like the product so it would be nice if that worked.
