Importing setups doesn't work anymore

Scene Manager Issues
#1

Hi,
We tried importing some setups today on the newest version of SM and it brings all the elements associeted with the Pulze setup (cameras, objects etc) but doesn’t create the setup itself in SM.
We tried both, bringing setups to existing big scene and importing to fresh Max file, in both cases it does not work.
Max 2024.
Can you reproduce it on your end or do you need some exmaple file?
Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up. We have found the problem and we will make the fix available in the latest beta asap.

Hi Peter,

Any idea when a fix will be available?

Thanks!

Hey Tom, the latest beta has a fix for this issue. You can grab it from here: Scene Manager 2.5.X [Beta]

We are working on a couple of fixes at the moment and then we publish a new version that will be the new default.

Hi Peter!

Is this issue already fixed?
I’ve tried it today with the Version 2.5.5 and it only imported the cameras.
These modules are checked for export:
Resolution
Camera
Time Output
Render Output - RAW (V-ray)

No setup is created in the file where I import the setups.
I remember it worked fine last time I tried it (but can’t remember when).

Thank you in advance.
best regards
Bernhard

Hey @office2, please use the beta that was linked before. During September we are going to merge all the changes and release the latest patches as the default version on our website.

Thanks for your patience!

Hi Peter,

I use the latest Beta version 2.5.5 (2024-03-29 01:36:58) but the Import/Export feature doesn’t seem to work, at least for me.
I opened a scene with few setups, I exported it.
In another scene I import the settings, it imports the objects (which I don’t want) but doesn’t import the setups themselves.

Thanks in advance,

Tom

The beta is at 2.5.10, so you’re not using the latest.

@peter.sarhidai We are november and still no official version?

Thanks.
I’m not prompted there’s a more recent beta version: doesn’t it update automatically?

And eventhough, the import/export option should be working with 2.5.5. Or is it a known bug that has been fixed with beta 2.5.10?

No no auto update, some changes need a reinstall. There was a version where import/export was broken, they fixed that in a newer update. You can see the latest betas in your downloads.

Cool, thanks. Now it works as expected.
