Why isn't my metallic material showing in lookdev mode? I'm watching a tutorial, and the author made his sphere metallic in Look Dev mode and it shows. I do the same thing and it turns black no matter what I do, whether I turn on scene world or lights or keep them off (his are off).
Here are pictures of his screen: First, he turns the background all the way down;


Then he makes his ball metallic.
Here is what happens to mine:

Why is his Look Dev mode options different from mine, and why is mine black?
I know a glitch that could cause this.
Sometimes when you focus on an object with the Numpad &quot;.&quot; button, objects turn black and you can get rid of this by pressing undo.
Sometimes this can happen randomly (I don't know how), so I think that might be your problem.
(Save and then try this incase it doesn't work)
