    That's odd ~ the plugin works both in 4.22.0.16 and 4.23.0.3 on my side.

    Then, if you check "Show FBX Dialog", are the export rules there are all correct ?

    Once again, I did everything as always. Same steps, same setup, same windows, same popups but no output files. sad

     

    I'm scratching my head with no other clue by now... Pls fill a ticket firstly.

    hey one question how exactly work the "skeleton convertion is something from the daz editor or the bridges?, it's only for "payed" membership?, because i really would love to convert daz characters skeletons to unreal engine skeleton

    Just wait for the new updated Daz to Unreal bridge (maybe plus another plugin...) released...

    After upgrading to the new daz public build (the one with the new splash, without subscription), daz studio become slightly unstable on my side.

    1 -  I have a scene with 4 cubes and 4 cylinders. If I merge it, it opens. If I open it via "open recent" menu, daz crashes without any crash window:

    2- My fresh Gescon II plugin suddenly started crashing with the new build. Just previous day, before the upgrade, it was all fun and games. Now, can't do a difference operations bigger than 5-6 precision (with adaptability always 1.0, precision depending on object). On lower precisions, animation started crashing after 30th frame or so.

    Always same crash (SS1).

     

    What would be happening?

    Normal cubes and cylinders?

  • Dolce SaitoDolce Saito Posts: 192

    Sorry, 4 cubes and 4 cylinders.

    Cubes are thickened via Thickener plug-in.

    Cylinders are normal cylinders.

    Very important: The scene opens if I merge in.

    No problem here. Could you please attach your scene containing just the cubes and cylinders, and I'll see what happens.

    As for the Gescon issue, maybe that's for the Gescon thread so that the PA can be of help.

    Weird, I just solved file open isue by merging the file in, "Save As" on top of itself "without compression". The problem went away. It now opens via open recent menu...

    Edit: I re-opened the latest file, saved as on top of itself again with compression. It now works. I have no idea what happened there. But file open - crash is now gone.

    Is anyone finding that the smart content tab takes longer to populate in the last couple of versions or have I just hit critical mass of installed stuff?

    I haven't noticed any change, and there isn't anything in the Change log that seems likely to cause that. It is always possible that there is a databse issue specific to you, so I would suggest making a point to export userdata - especially if you have added metadata yourself. Content Library option menu>Content DB Maintenance and check Export User data.

    Done that, thanks. I've got a lot of stuff installed, some with content wizzard. And I've added metadata and fixed the occassional product along the way. Surprising it works at all.

    Yes, I experienced the same issue since DS 4.21, with both General Release and Public Build, with Win11. I don't know the root cause other than a sort of glitch to me... and I don't think it's an issue of DS or cms database, because it sometimes happens especially when I use VPN.

    So, I will further check and test anyway ~~

    If you get a chance to look and if you find anything unusual in your set up I'd be grateful if you post so that I can check  mine.

    It's not useful, sadly. Unless you want to wait six months and then get silly answers like "Probably it's already fixed, lol, I'm closing this" when the issue is still there. sad

    Anyway, I found the source the problem, I'm investigating why it happens.

    Oh, man... you nailed it ~~

    So, what was the culprit ?

    Just installed 4.23 GR and PB in DIM, but they don't appear to be anywhere on my computer. Even when I click the button in DIM to launch 4.23, it just launches 4.22.

    edit: uninstalled and reinstalled, and now it's working, so....

    It's the FBX exporter. I disabled and reenabled it and it works again.

    Now I have to find why it initially stopped working, so I can add it to my "check list" when the plugins stops working (and it happens very often)

    Oh... I never thought of that but I did know there were glitches these days about plugins when I completed updating 4.23 Public Build for 3 times ~~ ouch !

    Decimator plugin was auto disabled...  Premier plugins didn't work with a static reminder of restarting DS... restarting DS... restarting DS ~~

    Finally, just got them worked !  Fainted ~~

  • I think it moves a lot faster. And the autofit that puts a whole outfit on without multiple clicking on each piece - niiiice. So far, knock wood, the only issue I've had is somehow some of my assets need to be reinstalled when I click to load them in scene. Not a huge deal, but interesting that they didn't switch over with the update. Anyone else experiencing that? Where you click a character or an outfit, and it asks you to close the scene down as if you're loading a new one? Weird.

    Found it. Issue with the smart content path on Xi pirate ship that I recently installed. It installed a smart content item in /props instead of default/props and created a new sub categorie. Changing the smart content path for the item and deleting the errant sub categorie got me back up to speed.

    Developer Tools... is broken in DS 4.23.0.4 Public Build. Clicking the button in the Parameters pane does not display the developer tools pane now. There is a syntax error (missing comma at the end of line 62?) in !G9 Dev Tools.dsa. After that, it looks like a whole line of code might be missing. I stopped investigating closely when the debugger reported the syntax error.

    It would also be nice to get a fix to a related error that I reported to the help request system in May 2023 (over a year ago, that never got a human customer service response! angry)

    Request #437277
    G9 Dev Tools v0.3 "Save Current Pane Info" script error
    May 27, 2023 13:01
    "I've been frustrated for a long time that the G9 Dev Tools v0.3 "Save Current Pane Info" step never works. Today I discovered that it is controlled by an unencrypted script !G9 Dev Tools.dsa. So I took a look at it. I can see that the Windows registry entry in which it stores the pane size and position is not the same as the registry entry from which it reads the pane size and position. I don't see how that is ever going to work. So I changed the script to use the same registry entry for read and write. Now the "Save Current Pane Info" works.
    This is an issue for the Daz Studio developers to address."

    Since the update I noticed a very annoying problem of a parameter bug when importing OBJ files. By default the scale is set to 100.000000%, forced to manually set each time to 100% because it is impossible to save a custom parameter, the scale always returns to this crazy value of 100.000000% Is an update planned to solve this?

    why is my email address visible instead of my username?? Please correct this I don't want to share my email address here!

  • @Richard Is there any chance we can get the Iray changelog updated? I can't find anything on 4.23.x.x release.

    Anyone else's studio unusable since the update to 4.23.0.1? Environments won't load and when they do, nothing shows up in the scene panel. Smart content and content library won't show anything. I've tried uninstalling everything and reinstalling but nothing has worked. I see there is a 4.23.0.4 out but the install manager still installs .0.1.

    I skipped DS General Release 4.23.0.1 'cause I always use duo versions, GR + PB.  4.23.0.4 is the latest Public Build, I found it works well, so suggest you install it.

    The issue you described seems odd. If you find the same issue with Public Build, i.e. both versions don't work, that'll be more likely non-DS issue...

    I installed 4.23.0.1 Public Build before 4.23.0.4 Public Build came out, and I did not have those problems with 4.23.0.1.

    I'm getting a colossal amount of crashes in these last releases of DAZ Studio when I use Mesh Grabber 3 in the scenes. Every scene that contains something that I morphed with that plugin and I forgot to bake to moprh, makes DAZ Studio crash every time I load something new in that scene or when I load another scene.

    Am I right when I guess we will not get a fix to this?
