at least 4.16 but initially I found it in 4.18, couldn’t reproduce it until now in a 4.16 project.
Well, perhaps reproduce isnt the right word but I stumbled upon the problem again and managed to find the emitter causing the issue. I made sure to remove as many factors as I could that are not influencing the bug and sending the emitter causing the issue along with this report.
the problem:
For some reason when exporting this emitter to any other system bugs out.
When I try to save it will give an error warning, and tells me that its unable to save & trying to find the graphs and other information from the original system, and not the system the emitter was exported to.
Its especially weird since this emitter is not that different from any other emitters I had in the system and they all shared the same graphs and modules.
I hope this helps trying to track the issue down.
I know it might be a long-shot since Niagara seems to be really on the horizon now, but if anything I hope that cascade is as bug-free as possible before its really depreciated. especially since it might be a few years before any project will be 100% cascade free.
project: STACK (4.16 project, but also occurs in 4.18)
steps:
- export the emitter thats in the “Bug” particle system to any other particle system.
- try saving the system that now contains this emitter.
- Error.
