Why does IR stop when merging objects through Connecter but not from Cosmos?

[hurrycat]

I couldn't find something similar in the forums but my experience is that importing Assets from Cosmos (they come as Corona proxies) keeps IR running but importing them from our own libraries (through Connecter) stops IR and it has to be started again.

Is this something that can be fixed?

Which version of Corona you are using and how exactly you are importing? drag and drop or some other way?

I am using Corona version: 11 (Hotfix 1) and 3ds Max 2024. I am using Connecter 7.0.

I mostly drag & drop assets from the Connecter App but I tried merging assets through File > Import > Merge and it does the same thing. IR stops running and needs to start again.

After doing a bit more searching I think it has to do with Corona Proxy. Corona Proxies don't seem to stop IR when merging but regular .max files do. All Cosmos assets are Corona Proxes afaik.

Anyone having any similar experience? Is this a known limitation (merging .max files causes IR to stop) or do I have to reset my preferences again?

[Avi]

This is actually a known limitation. We do this to avoid crashing the 3ds Max during the merge. I am checking internally with our devs on this issue. I will update you as soon as possible.

I have logged this issue in our system to be further reviewed by our devs.

Interestingly i can drag OBJ files from Connecter and IR does not stop, but it stops when i drag Max file, so maybe it's also file format dependent.

its mostly about merging max files only.
