6 GB?

Sorry, also it is a actual Job which I cannot share!
Told you everything I can tell about this problem.

But anyway! R1 is working fine so I'll wait for the next release
which maybe solves this automaticly.

Hi,
After installation, project material textures (all of them) are changed with an ies file (I using it for a light in the project and ies files comes from C4D library)
I saw a comment about this, I just wanted to share a screenshot maybe it can help.
Edit: I'm preparing an optimized file and share with you.

After installing 2021.1.6-(R2) whatever project I load all my textures got changed.
F.e. a wood texture has in all image-texture-slots (Albedo, Spec, Normal etc.) suddenly a total different
image (a normal-map from a different plastic material) loaded.
Even the texture in my HDRI Env has this material loaded.

Any idear???

thanks Mike

I've done some test about this problem and I tried to "Save project with asset" thing.
After gather all project files in one folder, project was opened correctly.
Note:
All material texture files in the project come from the asset library and from another disk. Nothing from the project folder (tex folder) is used.

I'm not sure what causes this issue. So how I can fix it?

It will help if you send the original project to me without changing anything. Even without any textures included.

Delizade, good to know that I'm not alone with this issue.

Ahmet, I know much less, what causes this problem!
So how can "I" fix it?

As said, I'm fine with R1 and will wait for next release!
Just wanted to report this problem!

As I say that I cannot fix something without finding what's happening. You may be fine with R1 but I'm not, because you reported some critical issue but I don't have any idea what's causing it.

Hmmm as Delizade reported, I also have lots of materials
coming from the C4D-Asset-Browser.
Maybe it somehow deals with access to the asset browser????
But thats just a guess!

Some time ago I reported that every texture from the new C4D asset browser cause that Octane copy them to custom tex folder - so we have twice the same texture on the disc. Maybe this time Octane "forgot" to create this folder. Please check that you have tex folder in your scene folder with these missing textures.

Anyway creating additional folder to store textures from Asset Browser is not good.

I'm using 2022 version and everything is fine.

Hey guys would you be so kind and send your scenes to Ahmet? These sound like critical bugs and both of you have the exact same problem.
Pm him if its a client job, cause the problem is not gonna get fixed magically on its own.

Thank you!!
