Greetings, this evening when loading up a previous project, I discovered that I could no longer change the material on the character. I can change the hair and other props but to add the RedSpecc Shaders, I am no longer able to do so for the skin.. I created a new project, same results.. loaded previous project, reconverted the materials on the character but now no longer able to import the RedSpecc Shaders to the skin..

I've rebooted the system, still no go..

Any thoughts or ideas?! I'm kind of stuck in the water with my work until I can sort this out.

(image shows how the menu looks when I have the character body selected, and trying to "import material" Red Specc shaders.. )

If you have selected the Body actor, you need to Import All Materials for the Prop/Figure.

Thanks Paul, you are correct, I don't know if I had a brain fart but I had always thought I had selected the first one for the character... (shakes head...)

Another quick one for you, when I select "open view port" on an existing scene or a new scene, it now opens to various sizes than before (it always opened to the full size It normally always did before...) which now requires me to resize it to the proper size.. Sometimes it opens to 1/4 or 1/2 the window size it used to.. Thoughts? (using version 4.02.1.91)

Thanks again.

Cheers

I am not sure how this would happen. Is your Windows Scaling (from the Desktop->Display Settings->Advanced Scale Settings) set to 100%?

Yes it is, this problem started about a week ago, probably what started my confusion of the initial query. It's not a horribly big deal as it can be reset after initial launch, but curious to know why it does that.. Could a gpu driver update cause such a thing? I think this might have started happening after such an update?

Thanks again.

I think it is a plugin bug, which I will try to fix in the next release.
