CV Toolbox Planesmart in 2024
-
When I upgraded to 2024 and installed the new updated CV Toolbox, Planesmart doesn't seem to work the same. The tool appears as normal in the menu lineup (though without the options gear) but when I load a PSD file into the field, no objects appear. The textures seem to be loaded normally, but the generator appears to be empty.
(file attached).
Am I the only one? In which case, is the best option to uninstall/reinstall CV Toolbox and try again? I hate doing that since in fixing one thing I generally break another.

Having the exact same problem seems like the 2024 c4d update broke Planesmart...no matter the reinstall or anything

I received this info today from Tech Support:
Thank you for reaching out to Maxon Support, and I apologize for the inconvenience you're experiencing.
The FAQ you are referencing is for a different issue with the CV Toolbox, not Planesmart.
That said, it seems you've encountered a known issue with the Planesmart we've documented and already reported to our development team. We still appreciate you bringing this up, as it helps us understand the scope of the problem and prioritize its resolution.
The only workaround I can offer at the moment is rolling back to 2023.2. The plane smart object does appear to work as expected in this version.
If you would like to roll back you can find the Cinema 4D 2023.2 installer here:
https://www.maxon.net/en/downloads/cinema-4d-2023-downloadsThe timeline for a fix depends on various factors, including the number of customers affected, the severity of the issue, and our current schedule of updates and optimizations. Unfortunately, I can't provide a specific date for when this will be resolved.
Thanks for your understanding!
