Title: SWorks file won't open in KS7.3

Windows 10
Keyshot 7.3.40
Plugin V. 1.6
Soldiworks 2017
Click "Send to Keyshot" (camera icon)

I am trying to render a Solidworks Assembly file with 5 copies of the same item. The prt file by itself imports and renders just fine. When I try to render the asm file using the KS7 SW plugin I get an empty KS Scene.

Using the KS 6 SW plugin works fine.

I have attached a BIP file saved using the export to KS SW button and also the SW files.

This happens to me to on occasion. I haven't figured out the root cause, but the work-around I use is to import the assembly file in Keyshot using Keyshot's file/import function vs. the SolidWorks plug-in.

That works perfect. I ended up using exporting to v6 but then had to update legacy material. Thanks for the tip.
