Hi folks,

First off, this is not a complaint, but some of us here would sincerely appreciate this specific issue being fixed as soon as possible by Caligari.

As soon as I installed trueSpace7.51 the very first thing I looked for was whether or not 7.51 had overcome the problem (since 7.5) with saved Rsscn files being impossible to load into truePlay1.21. No luck... truePlay won't load objects or scenes saved in 7.5 or 7.51 at all, contrary to what current Caligari webpages indicate (except maybe Rcd files according to a post somewhere here). This may be an oversight but it's a serious issue.

We all know that truePlay and trueServe are slated for upgrade to 7.5x compatability (and that it may be many months down the road), but in the meantime those of us without TS7.1 cannot use our saved files at all for truePlay usage and that is an extremely big problem for us.

Quite a few others here like myself plan to use our saved scenes in business right away, having prospects and current clients use truePlay1.21 to explore the files immersively in First Person Navigation just as Caligari has said we could all along. As it is now though we can't do that at all.

See the following thread for confirmation of this issue:
http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showthread.php?t=3181

So PLEASE Caligari...

(1) Is there a Patch coming for truePlay1.21 or TS7.51 to resolve this issue?

(2) If so, when can we reasonably expect to have it?

Thank you in advance, this really is very important to a few of us here.

Before this thread wanders off into oblivion unanswered I figured I should probably give it a bump.

I realize eveybody is busy with other issues but this one remains one I'd like a response to whenever that may be possible.

Thanks,

I believe the answer is a new truePlay version, which is friendly with ts7.51 items. Not sure when delivery is scheduled for but I know the devs are working on it as we speak.

Thanks Norm,

I do appreciate it a lot and I'm sure a few others here will too. That's all we needed to hear, certainly made my day! :D

Back to Happy Camper Mode now. :banana:

It is also possible for ts7.51 users to visit collaborative space again.
I was in Thursday nite meeting room this week but no one showed. Well one person showed up overnight but .... anyone interested in returning to a Thursday nite collaborative type meeting again? :)

More good news! Thanks Norm!

I'm sure now that lots of folks here have already begun to get accustomed to the newest versions of trueSpace we'll be seeing more people interested in meetings now, in fact I'll bet a lot of the new users would probably love to but don't even know about the shared space meetings yet.

I've only been to the shared space server twice I think and was alone both times so I have no idea where you guys meet or when and I'll bet lots of other folks here don't know where or when either, or even how to hook up. Lots of folk here are confused about what to do with shared space in the first place and what they're allowed to do there too. (I'm one of them!;) )

Maybe it would be good to do a big "Welcome new Users" meeting on this upcoming Thursday or the next, nothing really "formal," just a "get together."

Maybe you could post a sticky about it in the Roundtable Forum... it would be pretty hard to miss an invite there! Think it might be a good idea?

My RL schedule is an unpredicatable nightmare (has been for months) but I will try very hard to be there myself. I'm pretty sure if enough people heard about it the turnout would be really good now that the newest TS versions are being dabbled with by everybody, lots of curiosity and new snowmen! ;)
