Fusion Studio 18.1 DOA?

PostFri Nov 11, 2022 9:49 pm

Upgraded to Fusion Studio 18.1 and not a single project done in the previous version will load. I can open a project, but if I drag the last node in the flow into a viewer it won't display. I do get a progress wheel that just keeps spinning and spinning until I have to force quit the app. If do anything else, the app will freeze until I force quit the app.

Also when viewing the About Fusion info, the splash screen shows it as a Public Beta. I thought these were out of beta at this point. Am I wrong?

Great. I'm trying to find a way to download the previous version's installer, but I can't find it. Any ideas?

I had something similar happen. Opened a project and added an mp4 into a Loader. Hang and crash every time. Converted the footage to Prores 422 and it worked. Ran Magic Mask on a five second piece of Ultra Hd footage. Everything went fine. There might be something up with ffmpeg or just mp4 in 18.1. I thought it was the footage but...

This was on Windows 10 with 64gb Ram and 2x3090s.

Interesting. I tried multiple project files, some containing h.264 (which is rare for me), many with EXR and a couple with Prores 422. I didn't notice a difference on any of them and a force quit resulted in every test.

I have sent a project over to BMD support, so hopefully some answers will follow sooner than later.

I re-downloaded it but unfortunately that did not solve the problem. Hopefully BMD will sort this out. I'm returning to 18.0.4 for now.

Not yet, but if the issue has been addressed, I'll take a look once the current project I'm on is complete.
