Followed the instructions on uninstalling it, then reinstalled it and it seems to be fine. Cheers tech support!

I think I've done that successfully.  :)

No problem. Do I have to do this within the program or on this site? Not raised a ticket before....!

Hello. I've started getting this error message as of a couple of days ago when trying to open the cosmos browser.
Running a Mac Studio M1 Ultra with Cinema 4D 2024.4.1 and Corona 12
Any ideas?

Also, my cinema 4D crashes at least 8 times a day when loading images into my project asset inspector. I've noticed that the HDRI image I have loaded into the Corona Sky object for illumination needs to be reloaded in the actual object manager or it'll crash pretty much every single time. Also, if I've re-linked everything using the project asset manager and press render then try and save then close quickly afterwards about 25% of the time it'll crash cinema 4D too. This, as you can imagine, is frustrating beyond belief and expensive for my company's efficiency. Is this a common thing? If so, is there anything I can do to solve it?

@beanz @bnji

Any ideas on this one?

So, here's a screen grab of it actually happening.
Can anyone shed any light on how I can stop this? It's happening maybe 20 times a day and I've really got to be on guard for it or it causes me massive amounts of delay...

Well, from doing a bit of research I've found that naming each material properly massively reduces the occurrence of this happening. Might help you?
The problem with this current job is there were 10 things using slight variants of the same thing so I copied and pasted it into each of them BUT because there is a clear acrylic block on top of it I couldn't see on the preview that it'd wiped my materials and just sent them all to render.
Came back later and they're all wrong. I'd have checked in the VFB but it's not something that should happen so it caught off off-guard.
Ouch.

Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you. Here's an example of what happens.
I've tried copying this item several times and every time I paste it into my next document the mapping for the ingredients just gets replaced by a plain yellow the same as used elsewhere.
Happens every single time and is now costing me LOTS of time every day. It's beginning to make this program unusable. I can't show more because of NDA's but you should be able to see what's happening...

If you perhaps give me a direct email I can send you the actual file but I can't put it onto a public forum...

I've had a try to create the situation but can't. This is part of the problem. It tends to happen and it's something that makes no sense so when I'm checking my renders I don't tend to notice. Then I'll get the client saying "why's that logo red?" or something and it's because I pasted it in from another brief and it had the same name "Physical" or whatever.

Next time it happens I'll try to remember to collect the files and send them. Can I put wetransfer links on this forum?

Hi. I'll see if I have time to do this in a bit. Will send you over a file. :)

Thanks, just clicked that box on the boolean worked!
This wasn't my model by the way, I was adapting it to use Corona materials then had to carry out some amends.
I'll try and remember that in future! Thanks. :)

Surely there's nothing wrong with a lathe?

Hello. Well, I did think this but I've tried it with a lathe - the the same effect...!

It does have about 2mm thickness indeed.
I'll have a look at the shader and see what adjustments need to be made. Thought 'glass' would generally work on anything made from glass!

hello. on this issue, I have some bell jars. when I place the bell jar over the item the refraction is CRAZY. It looks like the whole thing is full of water or something. I've attached a screenshot and a rudimentary file. Can someone help? You'll have to drop an HRDI into the scene to light it perhaps.... (mine's too big).
