Autodesk should at least acknowledge the issue and preferably pull the update. I can only assume by the lack of responses that not many people are using cat so experiencing the error or its confined to windows 7 or something. REMEMBER switch the cat animations off before saving or the file will not open again.Īs I said hardly a suitable work around. Then turn the cat layer back on whilst you continue to animate or render. reinstall product update 12 and open the file, it will open fine. Select the cat rigs containing cat motion and switch it off by clicking the green play icon then save the file. Workaround[: (although its not really practical in a large scene).Ģ) uninstall Update 12 open your files that would not open, they will work now. So any CatRig without CAT animation layers is fine only the ones containing it will fail to open. It wont merge into another part or anything so effectively the file is locked and unaccessible. This time add a cat layer to the animation and then save and close. Save the file and re-open, again everything fine. Now animate the cat rig using abs layers. Open a clean max file and create a cat rig, no mesh rewuired just the cat parent. Forgot to say yesterday operating system is windows 7 64 bit. I did a clean reinstall of max, added sp2 and then added PU12.
