The 3D Balls and Bands does in fact render correct in Windows. I'm going to create a custom portrayal in the same pattern as the BallPortrayal and report back later today if that work.

For example, the 3D Balls and Bands example in MASON is all lit spheres.  Does that one appear to render correctly in Windows?

On Windows the sphere's do not appear to be rendering correctly. I've laid out the problem better on Stack Overflow in the following question - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42054250 - however, this is a bit of a niche question.
