latest bridge does not work in latest Mac OS. #24

Open srcobb3 opened 3 years ago

srcobb3 commented 3 years ago

Bridge and plugin installed fine from Daz Central. Export from DAZ 4.15 Pro seems fine. Plugin shows up in C4D R24, but when importing character, "please wait...importing", just hangs forever. I've left it for 24+ hours several times. I can't tell if it's doing anything at all behind the scenes, but there's no result. I am on a Mac Pro running OS X 11.4. I don't know what more I can give as afar as info. If you know something more I can tell you, please let me know!

Hey there, sorry you are having this issue, could you let us know which character you are trying to import? It would help us do a test on our end.

srcobb3 commented 3 years ago

Various genesis 8 and 8.1 characters. It’s the same with all of them.

I’m making a little headway on my own. It seems that some extra DaztoC4D files were hanging around on my system. I got rid of everything related that I could find and re-installed the bridge. The one big thing I see that’s not working now is converting materials to Octane, It worked well in older versions.

I see what the problem is with materials.. the initial import is bringing in materials Steven R. Cobb Illustration like C4D prorender (no longer a thing) where the diffuse, etc. are all under “luminance” I can’t even convert through Octane with materials set up that way. Is there some way to change that?

Hey sorry we have taken a while to get back, Octane is not currently supported in the bridge but we are looking into it for the future. If you want to set up the materials manually, you will have to collect the texture inside your scene.

https://support.gametextures.com/article/104-how-to-set-up-a-material-in-octane This may help for the time being.

srcobb3 commented 3 years ago

?? But converting Octane materials worked fine in previous versions.

The code base had to be rewritten for the newest version and this feature has not been added back yet. Currently only red shift and standard materials are supported.

srcobb3 commented 3 years ago

Is there more work being done now? It’s been over 4 months.

The dev team has limited resources and work on all the bridges, currently the focus is applied elsewhere but no bridge will be abandoned, we will return to support C4D in time.

xanathon commented 2 years ago

This is definitely abandoned. And still DAZ3D advertises their bridges as sale arguments for their assets. It borders on fraud.
