I really like the new installer option to copy over previous content directly in to the new version. :smooooth::cool::)

Let's see what other hidden goodies are included.

Great news.  Looking forward to working with it this weekend.

Glad to see the change to (removal of) the "Keep/Clear" option. I think that will improve usability and prevent a thousand people from asking the same question over and over again.

LOL!!!

That's the way I feel, trying to get my head around all the new update's (an old dog, new tricks, know what I mean)

  

Let me also say "thank you" for the great work RL has done :w00t: and report an issue :crying:

It may be something that I'm doing wrong, but when I engage the Appearance Editor with PBR_Basic for a character and then select Use Inputs for the skin, the textures are all there, but the skin shows grey.

The image below shows this for the head:



I didn't see this mentioned as a current RC limitation, i.e., something you can't do yet...:blush:

There is another, more serious problem: when using the PBR material with any clothing, the material assignments disappear, even if you select the correct option to cover all materials.
