Messiah embedded scene not working with lw 8.2

#1

Did anybody notice that you can’t make an embedded scene with messiah studio/animate in LW 8.2 ? Lw 8.2 can read such scenes but cannot create them.

I have tried this and it doesnt work:

start lw 8.2
open messiah
load object in messiah
hit f12 to connect it to lw
go to lw and save
exit lw
start lw
load scene

I see no object in lw and also nothing in messiah

is it just me or …

Hmm, you’re right, something’s broken… Connecting objects through the mover plugin (F11) works though, but the connected objects still dissapear in messiah when you reload the scene :confused:

I’ve taken to completely separating LW and Messiah. I use Point Oven Pro (awaiting eagerly for the update that will fix multi-layered object scene export). Base scene in LW, characters animated and baked in messiah (via POP) and then load from scene the LW exported scene…It’s not my prefered option - I’d prefer a single pipeline but it does reduce scene overhead and more importantly…it works!

you have to add this under the fps line in the scenefile:

Plugin MasterHandler 1 .messiah:master
MESSIAH_MASTER
EndPlugin

Somehow, probably because of the way you don’t get multiple sceneditors anymore in 8.2 also messiah is left out.

Well spotted…however, I have had that multiple standard banks again…so beware!
