error loading files version Plugin v 2.15

[alaman64]

Just wondering if anyone else is getting crashes with the latest version of the plugin.

What happens to me is that I will work on a scene, save it. Then try to re-load it the following day and Daz studio will crash. It does not always happen, so i don't know what steps to take but something i must be doing is corrupting my files. If i turn off the octane plug, i can then load the scene with out errors.

This is all i have to go on in the log file.

Thanks

Nick

well for me I have had this happen a lot too, but I'm not sure for the same reasons. I had a few files that would only open after trying to load them 4 or 5 times. So maybe you can try loading loading them a few times in a row and see if you get lucky?

It happens to me if the scene gets too complicated, when i try to re-open it crashes. Some files if i retry multiple times, eventually they will open, other files will not open no matter how many times i re-try.

i just have found about at least one particular reason; the plugin needs to migrate 1.2 to 1.5, 1.2 to 2.x, and also 1.5 to 2.x - and at least for the latter it misses a mapping because of bug in one of the earlier releases; a bug that affected plugs with octane 1.55 as well as 2.12 and is only corrected when going from 2.12 to 2.15, but not from 1.55 to 2.15 (to be precise it is only corrected when going from pre 4330 2.x builds to the 2.x 4330 build, so the latest 1.55 version will probably cause the same problem); will need to fix that with the next update.

if you like to get it loading already now (without oc data) by editing %HOMEPATH%\OctaneRender\Data\OctaneRender_switches.cfg right in the top section there is a line DisableEmbed.v2xLoad = 0 set it temporary to 1 (needs to be set before ds starts) and the scene should load. if you like to bring the mats over you can export the scene as .ocm with the previous 1.55 build (not orbx, since you don't need the embedded geometry and maps) and then import the .ocm back in to the cleaned scene. and if you do that, don't forget to set that switch back to 0 after closing ds...

yeah i had a file that was causing issues. finally got it to render. then deleted a bunch of stuff and saved a version. that version never has issues loading whatsoever...so i do think the more stuff the more likely the issue is to show up.

Yeah that may be one reason but I'm working with clean (from scratch) files for 2.x because there is no point in me opening my old files right now since they aren't supported anyway. Hopefully you can find the other reasons too

I'm also working with clean new files, but the change in the flag you suggested to OctaneRender_switches.cfg, does let me load up my files.

Thanks,
