Title: Loading of Bip File takes more than 20 Minutes when KS is licenced / activated
Post by: Mario Stockinger on October 05, 2018, 12:46:53 AM
I found an absolute stupid issue :

Yesterday when i updated KS7 to KS8 i could test KS8 only in Demo Mode.

When i opened my last project it was loaded within 1 Minute - but it was just the demo mode with the KS Watermark.
I was very happy and thought yes they fixed the issue....

Today i got the licence and activated KS8 - now when i open the exact same Project it takes more than 20 minutes ......
I then deactivated the licence and tested again on the same PC (No Windows Reboot) - project loaded in 1 Minute....

That's a waste of time... unbelievable...

I don't know what KS is checking when it is activated.....

I tested the same File on my other PC... in demo Mode the Project is loaded in 1 minute.
I saved the KS7 Project in KS8... didn't help.....

The Bip File hast about 1.8GB

Hi Mario,

This sounds like a problem related to many materials in the scene.
A problem we have fixed for 8.1.
You can optimize your scene by linking duplicate materials to a single material.

Thanks,

Claus

Well i can do a test and merge all materials together , I'll let you know what happens.

And Keyshot when no licence is installed handles materials different ?

I merged the materials and now it is loading as fast as with the unlicensed Version.

Strange behavior.....
