Ultra SceneryXT - Expansive Landscape System don´t work

Hello together,

some days ago i bought Ultra SceneryXT - Expansive Landscape System by HowieFarkes from which i allready bought every Ultra Scenery part. Till now every product always everytime worked perfectly, but now it´s the first product from Howiefarkes which won´t work ! Well first i thought, it would be my fault, because i install everything manually and then Re - Import the Metadata and Process Metadate Queue. It´s because my Daz3D stuff, together with many things from Renderosity, are on 4 different hard drives.

So very long i didn´t understand how to split install or better how to install products to different harddrives where i have my Daz3D Content Directories with Daz Install Manager. 

Anayway i manually deinstalled the Ultra SceneryXT - Expansive Landscape System again and then used the Daz Install Manager. Unfortunally that didn´t also work. So i deinstalled all products from Ultra Scenery and installed them by Daz Install Manager again. While everything else is working, the new Ultra SceneryXT still isn´t !

    I haven't tried to use it yet, but I checked the support thread and it seems there are things being reported by some, and others are not having issues. You may want to go there an read from page 7.

    One entry on page 8 may give me insight on my problem on my crashing on my MacBookPro.

     

    Edit to add: I just had time to work on my MBP and did another test of D|S 4.20.0.2 and again it ran, then as it should open the screens it shut-off. So I opened DIM, uninstalled both files for the UltraSceneryXT System. Closed the MBP and reopened. Then I was able to open Daz Studio. It looks like for now, I will have to keep it off my Mac computer until the hickup is fixed. I am lucky, I have two Win 10 computers I can still use it on.

    Thanks in advance !Use UltraScenery

    Start UltraScneryXT from the Plane menu. By the way in the Content-Package is a good PDF manual 

  • I cant get trees to show up. The biomes will not load. Textures, everything else is fine, no trees. I even used the preload, thrrain changes and is textured, no trees.

     

    Also the trees in regular ultra scenery are not showing up . I did eventually find them scalled down to 1% scaled them up and still they would not render.

    Using 4.16.03 Pro edition

    Did you read the UltraSceneryXT Reference Guide which gets installed in your Content Library Readme's folder?
    Did you follow these instructions that are in the UltraSceneryXT Reference Guide?

    Do you have Octane Render installed? That interferes with UltraScenery. Please read the first message in the UltraScenery commercial thread for troubleshooting tips.

    I can confirm that I had a problem generating terrain with UltraScenery when the Octane render plugin was installed. Simple terrains such as grass, a river, some pebbles would complete, but anything more complex, such as adding trees and saplings would cause the script to hang and never complete, eventually crashing Daz Studio on exit.
