Autodesk Material Libraries
The Autodesk Material Libraries are shared libraries installed with Autodesk
products such as Inventor, AutoCAD, Revit and 3ds Max. These three items
are selected for install by default when you install 3ds Max. They might be
installed already, if one of these applications is already installed.
NOTE If you uninstall or remove a library, the library is no longer available for any
products. Uninstalling also means you will be unable to view or display scenes that
have Autodesk Materials currently in them.
