Loading Materials from Scene - Problem AC21 & 3.7.0.76

Hi Paul,

I've got a problem with AC20 projects opened in AC21 and running the 3.7.0.76 (64 bit) plugin.
It stucks while "Loading Materials from Scene. Please wait..." (even small scenes / after ~30min no progress)

After reinstalling 3.6.4.74: same problem.
Ditn't work for a while with AC21, so I can't tell since when it doesn't work (anymore).

By the way: AC20 and 3.7.0.76 - no problems, and: new project started in AC21, no problems, too.

Any idea?

Greetings,
Artur

Same Problem. PLN Update from AC20 to AC21 doesn´t work. I can´t use our template as well...

I haven´t installed the new Test-Version for AC21, I have only the 3.6.4.74.

Here is our template as a PLA. I migrate it from version to version. Every ArchiCAD-material has octane-settings, and there are some example-scenes as well.
It hangs on loading Materials.

ArchiCAD 21 Build 4022
Octane Standalone 3.06.4
OctaneRender_for_ArchiCAD21_3_6_4_74_64bit

Hi - that appears to be a bug in the ArchiCAD 21 SDK related to the processing of materials with names that contain non-standard characters. I have contacted Graphisoft to get some direction on the problem. In the meantime, pls revert to ArchiCAD 20 if you with to use the Octane plugin.
