It takes ages for my Asset Databases to load in R2023
I have a large one, 45Gb, on my hard drive and a 25Gb database on an external drive.
I have created the index but it takes 15 minutes before I can start using C4D.
S26 is much faster by the way.
Asset databases loading time
Hi,
don’t know if this will help, but my experience with new C4D asset browser is not good.
I was using the legacy one on R20, with .cat4D files. the advantage of .cat4d files in the old cinema 4d is that the 3D assets are not copied in a database, it is an alias/link instead, does’ nt use much memory.
And you can always see where it is located on your hard drive.
With the new asset browser, there is always a new database being created, taking memory, and there is no link with the original asset on your hard drive, then there is redundancy and waste of space.
I blame the Maxon team developers for that, to add new features and forgetting the old useful ones…
For me when there is an update to a software, one should not loose any benefits.
Good luck with the asset browser on new cinema 4d !
Hi, do Wacholders work the same way as former .cat4d files ? If so I shall look into it, thanks.
