Hi,

With 801, with the swkit installed, and the 801 modo maxwell plugin activated. Any attempt to load a sld works assembly will crash modo. If I disable the maxwell kit it will open fine.

Thanks,

Hello,

Are you running modo under OSX or Window?

Do you have a crash report maybe?

Have you tried with modo 801 SP1? (It has came out yesterday.)

Hi Márton,

In windows, sp0 (I'll test with sp1 today). Not sure how to retrieve a crash report. I found that inserting new items into the scene would crash as well. Eg. adding a new light would crash modo with the plugin enabled. I'll check back when I've tried sp1.

thanks! the plugin works awesome btw.

one more question: If I drag an mxm in the shader tree it shows like a texture until I 'change type' to mxm. Is that normal?

Please try SP1 first, there is a known issue with SP0, and SP1 should fix that.

Hi Márton,

Same result with sp1: This is using the swkit to load 'heavy bodies' but any variation of loading is the same. Problem only occurs with maxwell plungin enabled.

This is the normal solidworks importer, am I right? (So I don't need a special plugin to test it)

Could you send me a solidworks sample file?

Hi Márton,

This is using the 'SW kit' which is an addin for importing sw files separate from the file | open importer. Also, I have the same behaviour opening a parasolid file .x_t using the cad loader addin.


Although, I just test with the file | open method on a sw part and it does crash as well. I send you a file.

Thanks,
