HQ Catalog does not recognize HQ Plants

(1/2) > >>

Hello,

I recently buy HQ Plants 1 but I can't use it with HQ Catalog. When I select the installation path by double clicking on a HQ Plants 1 Thumbnail, it says : " The selected directory doesn't contain HQ Plants 1 Library ". I have Forest Pack Lite 3.8.1 for now, and HQ Catalog 1.2.

Also, when I go to Customize-Configure user path-External File, the good path is already written.

Did I miss something or is it an unknown bug ?

Thank you for your time.

HQ Catalog searches a specific file for each HQ Plants library, to check if the path is correct. In the case of HQ Plants 1, the file is "HQ_Plants_1_matlib.mat".
Does this exist this file in the directory where you have installed the library ?

Also it's important not to change the structure of files and folders of the library, if not HQ Catalog would not work.

I suggest you try this:

- If you have modified the library, delete the full folder and unzip it again from the original file.
- Reinstall HQ Catalog 1.2.
- Run the attched .reg file. It fixes a configuration issue which may happen with Forest Lite under certain configurations.
- Run Forest and select some item in the Library Browser. It should ask the location of the library again.

Thank you for your quick answer !

HQ_Plants_1_matlib.mat exists in the directory, no problem for that and I didn't rename or move anything. I thought it was working good after I did what you suggested, but it remains one more problem  ;D When I want to use one of these trees, I click on "use item", the library shutdown, but nothing happen. It's like trees doesn't exist.
It's a bit destabilizing  :D

Can you check check if there is some error or message in the maxcript listener window ? This will help us to diagnose the import process.

Here is the screen. I create a plane and apply forest on it. Then I go to the library and choose "Acacia 1" for exemple.

Edit : No matter how or what I do, it still doesn't working and there are no errors in maxscript listener. Weird !  :o
