SOLVED Xparticles Failed to load

hello @thestraycat @r_gigante, I am experiencing this (or VERY similar). I receive the following when trying to start up all of my render nodes (S22). They start up with or without xparticles (but never load the plug-in). I can render on all nodes, and use Arnold as a plug-in as well, no issues loading that.

Insydium bumped it back to Maxon, who has escalated it. The bridge for Xparticles is not loading. I've been troubleshooting for 4 weeks. It's in the developers hands now, but any further info would be super appreciated. My 20 nodes are useless at the moment for XParticles, which is no good!

@adam_k_garner Looking at your output it looks like you have 3 different version of the plugin all in the same folder.

I am not an X-Particles users and haven't installed it in years. But it looks like perhaps you are supposed to delete at least the following two plugins from your installed folder

X-Particles.xdl64
X-Particles_23.xdl64

And just leave in the R21 version, which is compatible with S22. So do NOT delete this one.

X-Particles_21.xdl64.

Perhaps read the installation instructions again and see if the tell you to delete versions that are not compatible with your version of C4D.

hi,

I've forked your post to a new thread.

As Kent said, you should remove X-Particles.xdl64. This one failed and maybe bloc X-partiles_21 to load.
Give it a try and let us know.
