Thanks AbnRanger..... I literally just came across that setting and that fixed it. Cheers...

Sorry, do you mean migrate on the old Mac, then copy that folder to the new Mac.... I thought the migration was only done from within a new build of 3dc, and selecting a previous version....?

Not sure if Migration master would work across a network. Does the Mac not need a previous version installed to do this? My Macs are networked while I am transferring over.

I am in the process of moving all my apps to my new Mac Studio, from my Mac Pro. I installed the same version from my MP (2023.17) as the newest version didn't work. BUT the interface is all large text on the Studio for some reason. Same monitors, same resolution, only difference is the Studio is HDMI, the MP is DP. Mac Pro Mac Studio Also is there a folder I can copy over to save setting up all my materials/alphas etc..?

That's great news, thanks.... 2023.17 was the last build I was using on my Mac Pro, so cool.

Just set up my M2 Studio (Ventura). Downloaded latest Mac build (2023.23), tried to run it and just get an error '3D Coat failed to start'. Does any build work with Ventura? Also there is no option to run with Rosetta.

Additionally the same thing happens if I do a render. When I select the location to save, it actually saves the file, but the dialog keeps popping up requesting a save location, so I have to quit 3dc.

Have been playing around.....if I select a different preset then pick the object saver and give it a name. Then select the LightWave2020 preset it works fine, as the file name is already set.

The 'new' LightWave2020 export preset option doesn't seem to work. If I select the output location for the model, the dialog goes in a loop, I enter a name and enter, dialog comes back empty. I need to quit 3D Coat to get rid of the window. Although this is a welcome addition, 3D Coat cannot read LW 2020 to import. My current workflow is to save as an obj in LW and send to 3DC.

As much as I feel for the people in Ukraine and what they are going through, I am receiving a LOT of emails (2 a day) from 'Pilgway' with a link to donate funds. Is anyone else getting these, and is it legitimate, or your typical 'give us your bank details' scam......?

Version 2021.51 Mac Mojave (10.14) Migration master still not working from a 2021 build. 3D Coat closes immediately after hitting migrate. If migrating from V4.9, it takes a good few minutes to bring in the assets, then restarts with the migrated files loaded.

UPDATE: When I select something to migrate, 3D Coat restarts immediately (where normally it would install the data then restart). Migration works fine from V4. However if your a new user with 2021 this is not ideal. Fortunately I had not changed anything within 2021 since my initial migration, so all good, but a pain in the butt to manually install extensions (smart materials from pbr store), one at a time.

If I leave preferences folder (in documents) from previous build so it gets overwritten, will my brushes/smart materials/ui setup etc still be present. Usually I add _old to the folder so a new one is created (which was), then migrate from the _old folder.

Nothing will migrate using migration master in latest build (2021.21). This worked fine from V4 to 2021.

That's a whole other forum's topic......
