This worked for me. Tested in 64-bit with a 600KB project file that uses over 4GB of memory when loaded. It had a dragon in it and the particle "fire breath" loads and works properly.

Thanks

Particles works fine, camera on the timeline OK, no strange message when importing new character. So far so good.
(still only AVI export, but hey, this is beta.)
Thanks, Reallusion.

.

works.. thanks for quickfix..

DANKE für Haare und Kleidung:, die nicht durch den Avatar geht !!!

At first blush seems to be working as far as the Particle Effect issue is concerned. But I'm still finding a lot of older projects that are getting the ....

" Failed to load the file. If this is a .vns file please switch to the Project page and try again."
message in my 64bit install. They seem to be working in the 32bit install. May still be the memory issue as they are pretty big project files 40meg plus in size.

The undo/redo arrows are grayed out in the 5.2 64 bit fixed version. It works in the 32 bit fixed version.

I'm requesting that Beta releases not be auto notices that result in users blindly trusting the "update" only find they lose time and work because the software won't perform certain functions.

In my case, I saw the "update" when I started iClone5, it didn't say nothing about being beta and since I trust the RL folks, I OK'd the installation. Now, my ecological project is at a dead stop because the animation projects using particles don't work. So I have to re-do it in iC4 which fortunately, I never did around to uninstalling.

My suggestion is if something is Beta, mass email users. Those who want to mess with a beta version do so and those who prefer not, don't install it. If the update is a tested version and not considered a beta, then we all get it as usual via the pop up notice we're used to.

Now, as for the temporary patches and speaking for myself alone, I'm foregoing them. I'll wait until official patches come out because I have no time to hassle with cross your fingers stuff right now. I was set to purchase, 3dXchange 5 but it appears it has some bugs too related to the particle issue. So I will hold off until I see an all's clear from RL.

Well doesn't seem to be memory..... just loaded and older project that was 147 Megs and it loaded fine. Can't figure why some load and other do not....beta I guess

Exactly!

I also wasn't aware that the 64 Bit "Update" is a BETA Version, until after I installed it.

It would be unwise to Publicly BETA Test any Program, without finishing current Projects first, which some of us have unfortunately found-out, in this case
