Zwrap not starting

Bug Reports
1

So I’m moving this to Bugs.

Original Post:
"Hi, I just downloaded a trial of Zwrap and installed it on my 4R8. It initially seems to start ok and appears in the processes, but in a few seconds the window and process disappear and it stays hanging on “Zwrap is running. Please wait for process completion”.
However I don’t see the plugin window open … and it stays like that until I press esc. Any ideas why that might be?
I’ve 2 meshes in the scene a low res plane and a hires head.

Here is my set up if the info in neccesary:
Zbrush 4R8
Windows 10 64-bit
Processor Intel core i7-7700 4.20GHz
RAM 16GB
Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB"

P.S. it seems like it should be running but the window is nowhere to be found.

P.S. P.S. I just tried it on 2018 as well on the same setup and it behaves the same way.

P.S. P.S. P.S. I stopped my antivirus (AVG) and windows firewall - no change at all.
The plug-in starts and immediately stops ( the process disappears).

This is starting to get really frustrating

Hi,

We are currently investigating this issue.
It seems that the plugin suddenly crashes, so we are preparing a version with the crash dump.

The same situation. With message “Zwrap has stopped working”

Zbrush 2018.1

Hi feddark,

Thank you for reporting the issue.
If ZWrap crashes on startup without showing any plugin window (and only Windows popup message occur), that issue has been fixed.
I have just sent you an email with a download link to the latest ZWrap version.

Hi, I have the exact same issue and similar specs if that’s relevant. Zwrap opens in a separate window, which i only find by looking for it manually. This window remains in black screen for about 30 seconds until it closes itself. Then Zbrush is left stuck in “Zwrap is running. Please wait for process completion”. Please let me know if you’ve found a solution!

Has this issue been fixed? becuase I can’t get this plugin to work, neither can I get wrap 3 to import GEO without crashes in both instances.

Hi,

The described issue for plugin has been fixed.
But if you are getting crashes for Wrap3 too, then it’s another kind of problem.
Does Wrap3 crash only when you attempt to import mesh?

8

It still crashes for me, both zwrap and wrap 3. is this plugin compatible with Amd?

I changed my CPU from AMD phenom to AMD FX 3850, one which supports SSE 4.2 and all my problems seems to go away. It works now!

Having same issue as other people did earlier this year - ie, Zwrap stalls at…

“Zwrap is running. Please wait for process completion.”

Never get to the Zwrap window to start the wrapping process. Any suggestion on how to fix this?

I just purchased the plugin today after a trial period. Thank you!

What version of ZWrap do you use? Did it work well before, with other meshes?

12

I have the same exact problem as jdakotapowell.

I’m running on latest version of ZWrap and ZBrush 2020.

As soon as I start the plugin in ZBrush I get “Zwrap is running. Please wait for process completion.” and it never starts past the loading window.

EDIT: I seem to have figured out why it doesn’t work. The strange thing is, it does work, but it takes forever to load because my mesh is at around 55 million polygons. I tried with the same mesh at about 60k polygons and ZWrap opened at last!

Hey Guys

What I found is that you need to have different names for your meshes i.e. lowpoly_Man on top, highpoly_Man on the bottom.

Hope this helps someone out there :slight_smile:
