Fixed

  • Fabric Scene Delegate (FSD) - Fixed malformed BasisCurves with FSD enabled. [OMPE-12742]

  • Kit SDK - Fixed issue with script editor giving wrong error location with selected code. [OMPE-17482]

  • Kit SDK - Fix UsdUvTexture property panel handling of missing texture references. [OMPE-16061]

  • Kit SDK - Fixed inconsistent icons in context menus. [OMPE-8922]

  • Kit USD - Fixed support for MDL files embedded in USDZ. [OMPE-15425]

  • OmniGraph - Fixed a memory overwrite with compound nodes that could occur when unloading the stage. [OMPE-21595]

  • OmniGraph - Fixed issue with graphs being reset. Resets can happen USD sends resync notices with paths that affect graphs under that path. For example, a file->save as operation or a time code change can trigger resync notice with “/” as the path - meaning everything in the stage has potentially changed. In response, OmniGraph tried to reset and reload itself, but sometimes this is not happening correctly, which is the root cause of this bug. We have now made the graph reset operation much more robust, and should fix this bug. Note that there are still cases where if the graph is holding onto some transient data that is not stored in USD, that data cannot be restored when a reset happens (this is not the case for this particular use case). [OMPE-15844]

  • SimReady - Fixed a bug with relative pathing of MDL modules. [OMPE-20272]

  • USD Exchange - Fixed an issue on Linux for cases where some GLIB files did not correctly convert the animation and mesh data to USD. [OMPE-12136]
