Something is wrong with Overlap Identical Geometry in UV mode on 2025.2.1?
-
Cinema always freezes permanently for me when I do Automatic UV > Packed > tick Overlap Identical Geometry and hit apply. It always hangs up at 33%. Tested on 2024 version - works fine. Even tried it on a different machine - same result.
Anyone else have this issue?
Also, when in UV Commands when using Start Interactive Mapping it used to update automatically in UV window, now it doesn't work. Are you aware of this?
Tested on both machines:
Ryzen 7 5800X / 32 GB RAM / RX 6800 XT / Cinema 4D 2025.2.1 / Windows 10
Ryzen 9 5950X / 64 GB RAM / RTX 3090 Ti / Cinema 4D 2025.2.1 / Windows 11 -
Hi Krimm,
I can't reproduce this here.
CV4_2025_drs_25_UVoi_01.c4d
Please use the Attributs> Mode> Modeling> Mesh Checking so we can exclude the model as the problem. If the model shows problems:Can you select only the parts that might be identical and use the Inverse Selection [U~I ], then try again. With no identical islands selected that should cause no problem. If that is true. You can explore which islands produce the trouble – if that is a model problem. (Problem-solving strategy: Eliminating one after the other)
Given all my suggestions were not useful, since I have no file, I can only guess; sorry about the time waste; please check with support:

All the best

Been using Cinema for years and this never been happening before - here's the video of the simple example with cubes: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Hy5TnIsRTRefR2g3wjzAGZAITakCMVoG/view?usp=sharing
Please look into that because this is ridiculous.

Hi Krimm,
You have shared no new data, except that it is not specific to a single model.
This is OK with me, so please check with tech support.
I'm not supposed to do tech support things here; what I can do is share my findings.Yes, I have watched your video and have reproduced the workflow, but I can't reproduce your problem.

Not with the Cube settings (Segments) nor when I cut this as in your video.Perhaps the tech support can help you locate the problem.

Thanks for looking into it. It's wild that it's the same thing on different PCs though. Looks like it's something has to do with compatibly / hardware.
Edit:
Vulgarity -
Hi Krimm,
It seems to be a combination; hence, I can't reproduce it.
Please check with support.One favor to ask, I can understand that you are annoyed by the problem. One thing is clear, Cineversity is not a platform to express this in any way you might find fit. Your tone is pretty much borderline; remember, we have an audience of all ages here. Keep it professional. Thank you.
All the best

P.S.: I will keep an eye on the reports, if anything similar is coming in.
If any suggestion is made to get this fixed, I will share it here.
I see only one entry so far, and it is with Windows/NVIDIA; NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti; version 12
Please create a ticket; the more data is provided, the more a problem can be covered to solve it completely. Thank you. -
Yeah, I created a ticket. Added that one machine is on Win 11 another is on Win 10 also, so my best guess is something with the CPU compatibly perhaps.
-
Thank you very much, Krimm.
I have added a note to that report based on what I got so far from here.
Fingers crossed, this is soon history. Sorry that you have to endure that.
My best wishes.

Alright, so I got a swift reply from support. Both bugs are known and being worked on and should be fixed on the next update.
-
Perfect, thank you, Krimm.
All the best
