RE: Help! Problems with referenced models & Mixer.

2013-10-30 Thread Jack Kao
Thanks for the tips Matt.

In the end what appears to fix our problem was, I deleted an unrelated,
offloaded model from the scene, and subsequently the referenced models that
were acting up started to function normally again.

I guess the Delta on this offending offloaded refmodel was somehow
interfering with the others? It’s really weird. Does anyone know how that
could have happened?

Thanks again anyways. If you hadn’t mentioned Alan’s informative guideline
to refModel Deltas, I would have never thought to look at other models’
Deltas for any clues.



Cheers,

Jack

When you say the settings are default - that may be your problem. The
default delta settings are way too open. If you untick save changes to
mixer in the delta, and clean out any saved references to it in the delta,
it should respect that.

All of the settings in the referenced model Delta are default, and the
model that’s being referenced has no innate animation/Mixer/Delta
information to speak of and functions fine in other scenes.

I am at my wits end and have no idea what may be causing this issue or how
to even reproduce it. Has anyone run into this kind of problem and what are
your solutions?



Thank you so much!

Help! Problems with referenced models & Mixer.

Help! We are running into this obscure problem in our production with
Mixers in referenced models not updating. Even when we delete the Mixer
altogether and save it out as a new scene, the Mixer would magically
reappear upon reloading this newly saved scene.

All of the settings in the referenced model Delta are default, and the
model that’s being referenced has no innate animation/Mixer/Delta
information to speak of and functions fine in other scenes.

I am at my wits end and have no idea what may be causing this issue or how
