Hi Roberto can i ask questions about the beta here?
Yesterday i tested the latest beta the sleep function, i started a dense cloud calculation on ultra and set the timer from 00:00 to 06:00
Today i woke up and saw the computer was shut down but when i reloaded the project it didnt have any dense point cloud,
is there a log file what happened? maybe it crashed hmmm

greets Nedo

[Roberto]

Hi Nedo,

you can find all the logs here:

https://www.3dflow.net/technology/documents/3df-zephyr-tutorials/how-to-locate-3df-zephyr-log-files/

If you can send me the last log it would be very helpful. I suspect Zephyr didn't save the project before shutting down :\. It hasn't be fully tested so it might be still buggy. If it was a crash Zephyr wouldn't have been able to shut down the computer . Thanks for reporting this

[Roberto]

Ok no need to send us the log, I think we have found and fixed the problem. Now it should save the current workspace properly in the desktop before closing . Rolling out a new beta:

v.3.563 changelog

• Fixed a problem with automatic shutdown and workspace saving
• Fixed a crash in the preset selection page

[Roberto]

v.3.564 changelog

• Fixed a problem with georeference data and polyline tools
• Fixed a minor issue with texturing
• Added custom color map to the dem viewer
• Added 'remove masks' command
• Fixed a problem with camera calibration and Zephyr in italian languages (cameras not showing up)
• Fixed a problem with layer creation in the add photos page of the main project wizard
• Activation and licenses are now 'per machine' rather than 'per user'

Just an info, zephyr 3.564, yesterday i started a new project (dense cloud) with the sleep modus, i setup 00:00 to 06:00
At 7:30 i woke up and saw the computer is still running, no shut down instead a message where it says it could not save
the project, i found out why, the SSD was full ! I saved it manually then without a problem.
This time i'm happy it didnt shut down

[Roberto]

• Utility menu reorganized
• Minor fixes

I am getting "Failed to import file" when importing Mesh with known uv-map. Seems to load correctly in the steam version though. Otherwise I have encountered no issues what so ever so far

[Andrea Alessi]

Hi herrkjeldsen!

can you please send us the mesh you're having issues with? This way we can reproduce and kill the bug

thanks for the feedback!
