Hi
I've just been using the new Version 4.8 beta for around a week and all was well, but today I can't use any of the menu's, file, create etc
ver 4.7 works OK
very odd
I uninstalled and reinstalled but still no go
Comments
Mine works well enough. Either try a reinstallation, or blend (carefully) your plug-in directory from 4.7 into that of 4.8 so that they share the same resources.
Hi They are both using the same dir for content
It looks like File and Edit have stopped functioning so I can't load anything at all or do anything as these menu's no longer work
I have uninstalled and reinstalled so pass ill goback to using 4.7 for now
Hi
re 4.8 beta
Sorry I started a thread in Members but perhaps this belongs here
It looks like File and Edit have stopped functioning, so I can’t load anything at all or do anything as these menu’s no longer work
I have uninstalled and reinstalled but to no avail so pass ill goback to using 4.7 for now
I can change all the other tabs OK
I noticed the New NVIDIA Iray doesn't render Hair from LAMH
I have noticed problems in both 4.7 and 4.8 that I think is Memory related
I was using a program that allows you to add lots of figures to create a crowd
I have 24 gig of memory installed so I was adding a figure one at a time
I was using Victoria 4, Michael 4 and Genesis Figures to test
I have added hair and skin textures
As I added them I was looking at the Memory used in Windows to ensure I didn't reach the limit
At around 36 Figures + Hair and Skin, this was using 16 Gig on reloading the Scene, once this had completed It went down to 12 Gig
This is when things started going weard
Animate 2 was working and I was able to add a Dance move Block per person OK, but The Choice of what set of Blocks I could use
Stopped being available I was stuck on what I used last ?. This restores on a New Scene OK
In addition to this most of the Menu functions stopped working and some other tabs were objecting
I can only conclude that some of Daz Studio functions are affected when large amounts of Memory is used
I was however able to render a 10 second animation of them all dancing OK, but Daz Studio crashed when I tried to save it,
I was using the lagarinth Lossless Codec at the time. I retried exporting Single frames this worked fine.
Nope...and it won't be a feature that can easily be added. LAMH and Garibaldi both use a 3Delight specific function to generate the hair, at render time. You can export the hair as actual geometry, but the memory used will increase dramatically.
"Nope…and it won’t be a feature that can easily be added. LAMH and Garibaldi both use a 3Delight specific function to generate the hair, at render time. You can export the hair as actual geometry, but the memory used will increase dramatically."
perhaps LAMH and Garibaldi can assist here?
Re File etc not being available
This is weard
I reopened 4.8 beta and then none of the Top tabs worked?
However out of interest I used the scene function to import a model and that worked OK
I then closed down 4.8 rebooted and reopened and now they all work again. Pass
Perhaps it didn't like me loading lots of models before

Uninstalled
to many problems
