Resolved Cloth Editor Cloth Editor Crash on startup

[Dawa]

Summary: Out of the blue, my cloth editor stopped working. Clicking on the icon in the menu bar opens the cloth editor window but the viewport is completely black and the editor freezes instantly. The only way to close it is through the task manager. I must have tried about 100 times by now to open it and it just won't work. I've tried it on multiple games version (170, 171 and 172). I've uninstalled completely both the game and the editor, and reinstalled (several times) and still no luck.

The only way to get it to work is to open the game, go into a random battle, tab out of the game, open the editor and launch the cloth editor. When doing this, the cloth editor will work 1 out of maybe 10 times?
How to Reproduce: N/A -> It happened completely out of the blue. I used it to add cloth to a model, then saved the settings, tried the model in the scene and opened the cloth editor again to tweak the cloth and that's when it stopped working.

The QA team were not able to reproduce the issue. Could you send us the model you made so that we can try reproduction with that in hand?

Thank you for the reply, I can definitely send you a model if you want, but the issue does not come from the model but from the editor itself.
I have a second PC with the editor installed and on this one the cloth editor and model viewer work fine. When i do get the cloth and model viewer freeze issue on the second PC, i "simply" completely wipe down the SSD and reinstall windows then reinstall Bannerlord + Modding tools. A simple reinstall of the game + modding tools does not work.

I get the freezing issue with every model i use

Obviously, this is not an ideal solution...

Let me know if you still want a model to test with.

reinstall Bannerlord + Modding tools. A simple reinstall of the game + modding tools does not work.

Is the game and the modding tools are in the same drive? Also both needs to be on the same version as well.

 

[Dawa]

Yes, on the same drive and both are on the same versions. I've tried 1.6.4, 1.6.5, 1.7.0 and 1.7.1, every time making sure that both the game and editor are on the same version. I've also tried to install them on a different drive (both still on the same drive, but a different one) to see if something changed, and it was still broken.

I have the same issue on the 1.7.1 version of the game. I didn't tested it on an other version and I never used this tool before.

I've been informed that this bug is fixed and the fix will be sent to the game with future patches. Thanks for reporting and sorry for any inconvenience!

I can confirm that it's been working since 1.8.0, thank you very much!
