ZBrush Plug Ins not working after CS6 upgrade

I just upgraded all of my adobe applications to CS6. After this I went to use Transpose master in Zbrush and it’s not working at all. I’m getting an error code that I’m not familiar with. I’m also having a hard time getting other plug-ins to work. Anybody ever see this before or know how to fix it? I tried re-initializing but without any luck.

I hate it when upgrades break stuff. I don’t have CS_anything.

You upgraded adobe products and zBrush plug ins are not working anymore?

This sounds pretty strange.

I’ve CS6 Production Premium & zBrush 4R4.2 running and a bunch of other programs.
W7 64 Bit
Luckily no problems like this here.

I’ve no explanation for this.
The only “link” I found:
under ZStartup/ZPlugs/TPoseMasterData4 is a TM_logo.PSD (37.554 Bytes )picture?
Can’t do any harm.
Else there is:
PolyMesh.ZTL (24.053 Bytes)
TransposemasterDLL.dll (803.421 Bytes)
TransposemasterDLL.dylib (316.496)
and a “Cache” folder including a “folder.txt” document (10 Bytes)

All sizes are the first value, not the "size on harddrive or how it’s called in english Win.
Maybe one of those were destroyed during installation?

Good luck!

Upgrading to CS6 won’t have affected ZBrush plugins. And the error message you show has been mentioned before. Please say which version of ZBrush you are using, and also which version of TRanspose Master (you can find that by putting the cursor over the TPoseMesh button and holding Alt).

As for your other plugins not working, you don’t say what’s going wrong. Perhaps the issue is with a particular model.

Sorry, I should have known better and posted my specs.

Zbrush 4R4 P2 on a Mac 10.7.5 2.93 GHz Quad Core Intel xeon with 12 gigs of Ram - ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB

I’m running tPose 4r3.04.

I thought it was really strange that this started happening right after the CS6 install. Must have just been a coincidence then. I’ve used the plug-in on other models before.

In respect to the other plug-ins, SubTool Master won’t even activate and UV master won’t make a clone. I haven’t tried all of the plug-ins, but obviously something is affecting that entire folder. I guess I may need to do a fresh install and see if that helps.

Thanks, that’s useful. Have you restarted ZBrush after getting the TM error? It is possible that the other plugins are not working because of the error but a restart should fix that.

With TM do you always get the error or is it with only one model?

Thanks,

I tried restarting the program. I tried re-initializing. I tried restarting the computer. No dice. I also tried using the plug-ins on a default z-tool of the human figure. None of the plug-ins will activate when I click on them at this point.

I think I need to do a re-install of the software. I’m just hoping I still have the installer somewhere…

Ok, I reinstalled the program and the plug-ins are working on the stock model Demo Soldier, but I’m getting that same error call with my model. Any idea what this error is and how I might correct this? The model is finished and I was hoping to pose him for my demo reel.

I just watched for the error and saw what subtool was causing the crash. Fortunately it was a small thing. (just a tooth). Well, I “pulled the tooth” and now transpose master is working fine.

I’m glad you’ve got it sorted out and thanks for letting me know. Can you let me see the model? I’d like to try and find what’s causing the issue so that I can correct it in Transpose Master, if possible. PM me if you can, and I’ll let you know how best to send me the file.

Thanks,
