Tx Masterzone,
that solved it. I got OSX 15.0.1, C4D 25.0.2 and the CR 13 latest daily build and Cosmos running.
I installed CR13 without Cosmos and updated Cosmos from within C4D/Cosmos and then ran the installer manually from the desktop.

Good to know it's an installer problem.

Anyhow, I am moving away from Cosmos as much as possible. Redshift had done a much better job with its assets within C4D. All Redshift assets are directly available though the C4D asset browser even though they are under subscription. I hope Chaos is going to put some more effort in Corona for C4D. I took a look at the roadmap but it seems we are at the end of it.

Just did an update as Cosmos popup window suggested. Cosmos after that did not run anymore. An hour wasted again to get it sorted out. I uninstalled Cosmos and downloaded the official release 12 hf2 again and Cosmos runs again.

TO CHAOS : PROVIDE THE CHAOS ASSETS FOR THE C4D ASSET BROWSER !!!!!!!

Tx Jojo,
good idea to group the variations. Will start doing that too.

Overwriting is still a hassle. I used to convert the materials to PB. But Stefan from 3Dtools wrote me once that the legacy materials are just as good to work with so I stopped doing so.
Happy I have the script again.

I also noticed that.
Did you also get Cosmos to work . I could only get Cosmos to work with the current official release 12 hot fix 2. Any update of Cosmos beyond caused Cosmos to stop running.
OSX sequoia & C4D 2025

That's exactly what I was looking for. It's a great script for Maxtree assets. Maxtree has done their plants with rather smart materials with all their versions of the same plant using the same materials. But when you open the assets you still get all the same materials loaded. They don't delete well with the C4D delete duplicate.

Thanks !

Yes John, that's the one. Any idea how I could get it again. Did you post it before.
It was written by a users. I accidentally deleted it when I wiped out my harddisk to install a new system.

Hi,
There was someone here at the forum who had a small script that deletes all duplicate materials. Very handy when working with Maxtree trees and plants and when using the C4D asset browser.

I lost the script when reinstalling my system so maybe someone still has it. I did a search but could not find it.

The attachments show the OSX installs that currently work on my MacBook m1 and Mac Studio m1 incl. Cosmos.
Any Cosmos update after CR12 hf 2 breaks loading Cosmos.

So it can not be the latest OSX 15 or C4D 2025. It must be CR, the daily build 13 or an updated Cosmos after hot fix 2 that is the problem. I won't update CR and Cosmos anymore unless there is a statement on a solution.

At least I can work with official release of Coronarender & the latest C4D 2025 and OSX15 which is a step forward.

54
Thanks.
I have this issue with the updates Cosmos wants me to install. If I just stick to CR12 with hf2 all is fine.
I will no longer update Cosmos hoping that stuff gets fixed before an official release of CR13.

When that happens and I experience bugs again I will surely submit a support ticket.
I can only hope Chaos will provide a more robust and professional service through C4D's asset browser sooner than later.

Tried it again today. After updating clicking update in the Cosmos window, Cosmos went to a window stating the service is not running.
Deleting everything Cosmos and reinstalling Cosmos did not work either. A complete uninstall of Corona render and a complete install of CR12 hf2 as downloaded from the site and Cosmos came back again.

Mac OS 15.0.1 (24A348)
C4D 25.0.2
CR12 hf2 works. CR12hf2 and update Cosmos at oct. 14 2024 leaves Cosmos not running the service.
Mac Studio

56
Chaos Cosmos back off. I had all working as described above but just clicked update in Cosmos and got an error window stating the service is not running.

Downloaded CR 12 hf2 and got it back on.
I am done with the daily builds. Cosmos is taking all the fun out of testing/working with these daily builds.

Cosmos back on !
I completely reinstalled my MacBook m1, new system all erased.
I got C4D 2025.02, CR 13 aug.28 2024 and OSX 15.0.1 running now, all new installed.

Whole process took me about 3 hours. But Cosmos works now again and everything seems fine.
C4D 2025 starts up now with a standard scene file logo with Redshift settings, camera and so on. Never knew before you could set a standard scene file. So I made my own with Coronarender settings. Such a relief  I don't need to set all to Corona each time start something new.

I have no idea why my system corrupted Cosmos especially.  I played a little with Redshift but it was extremely slow compared to Corona on my MacBook. Corona IR is a lot more responsive than Redshift on CPU.

I make less. But don't see Max offered for something like 450 a year. I am in Holland though. Prices start here at around 2000€ a year.
Much rather have C4D/CR but would not be using either for 2k.

For example these two. Look at the incorrect r-values. Often the glossiness is off as well at 100% without a map.

The usual manual corrections I have to do are incorrect glossiness, incorrect r-value and too saturated colours  in case of people. These I correct with a gamma adjustment of 1.2. I have a feeling that the convertor is faulty. The CR scene convertor produces very low r-values I noticed.

I am trying to import the Cosmos assets in to the C4D database system. I got about 600 people models done now. Fairly easy process.

But I tried to put Cosmos Haworth assets in the database and only part of those assets import in C4D 's database.
I duplicate Corona Cosmos proxies to mesh before moving them to C4D database. But still.

I need to do this since the Cosmos browser has its moments and moods and I often get stuck before a deadline.  I would love to move Cosmos assets to a more robust location like the C4D assets browser.
