Clay problem

Yesterday, I created a clay render, today I am not able to redo it. Does someone have an idea, what I may have changed to get the shown (wrong) result?

(The background material (simple phong) seems to change to a strong emitter?)

Possibly the quick export may be using a material with the same name that was saved from a previous scene ?

Just a headup, I could not find a quick export related option. Nor a clay one for the matter :lol:

Thanky you. For a clay render, you only have to change to monochrome view in Sketchup and start the rendering.

I think I have found the solution, but not really the problem. It was a strange combination of a backface and a corrupt (?) material. I recreated the material and it works again.
