New and Optimization

Fixes

  1. Fixed data anomalies related to instance duplication and group editing.
  2. Fixed occasional model position errors.
  3. Fixed an issue where .d5a models exported as groups had a default 90Ā° rotation on the Z-axis and sync coordinate errors when imported into D5 (this fix requires D5 version 2.9).

Known Issues

  1. Instance Mesh:
  • After importing into D5 Render, materials of Instance Mesh will be unified and can not be adjusted individually.
  1. Group Instance Mesh:

  • Group Instance Mesh doesnā€™t support adjusting materials individually and will use the same material.

  • If you move or duplicate the models within Group Instance Mesh, the information of the original/instanced group will be randomly displayed in D5.

  1. Hide:
  • If the archive has a group containing multiple layers, you have to unlock the group to hide one of them. New groups created after the livesync are not affected.
