What material should be assigned to placeable building parts in blender before exporting?

I'll looked in a GIANTS placeable mod and you need to use the buildingShader for your material.

The reason I am asking is if I don't choose a material before I export it, I can't use a custom shader once it's back in Giants Editor. It gives me a TEXCOORD error and says the material doesn't support it. If I choose a material, then it defaults to the vehicle shader in Giants Editor despite telling the Giants Exporter in blender to use the building shader. If I try and change it to the building shader I get an error.

The placeable buildings in the game use the buildings shader in their custom shader field. What I have done is started with a shed from the game, took it to Blender to modify it, and now brought it back to Giants Editor.

Have you added a material to your object and have you clicked the "Apply" button after picking the shader in the GIANTS I3D Exporter "Material" TAB in Blender?

That did it! I wasn't clicking APPLY. Thanks David.
