Imager doesn't update?

Anybody else have a problem with the imager not updating with the kernel settings? It doesn't happen all the time, but occasionally (like right now) the imager gets really stubborn and stays stuck in Direct Lighting or at an incorrect resolution. I've tried to force a rebuild of the scene, but it doesn't fix anything. Seems the only way to fix it is to reboot DAZ.

Any tips? Thanks!

See if you can select another Render Setting at the top of the "Setting" list.
It should normally be Default Render Settings. See if you can change that.

Unfortunately this is a bug which has been in the plugin for a very long time, and I have put a substantial amount of effort into fixing it, but not yet found a solution. My understanding is that it only happens when you Import a Rendersetting. You should be able to do a "New" Rendersetting to get control back - but the Imported Rendersetting will be unusable until you save and then reload that scene.

Thanks, Paul. Next time I will try that.

Hi Paul,

The bug appears to have changed or gotten worse.

When it occurs, it sometimes persists even after I restart DAZ.

Furthermore, it isn't fixed even by creating a new Rendersetting.

In fact, it isn't rendering at all. It just says "Waiting..." at the top.

If I export out to Standalone, the scene works, but that isn't what I want to do.

Suggestions, please?


P.S. I tried deleting all of the rendersettings and starting from scratch. No avail.
