What happened to the Rig Manager?

  • 64 bit version, latest build, running on Win 7.


    Don't remember which version i was upgrading from - i was out of the loop for around 6 months - but it seems it's a major step back on all fronts.

    • Search box only searches profile name (used to search all parameters)
    • Also, it only searches from the beginning of the string - between this and no. 1, it's completely useless for me now.
    • Crashes every time i let it update from the Rig Exchange. I'll clear the DB files and start over, but this is recurring and it's hard to rely on a manager that will bugger-out and corrupt your collection every once in a while.
    • Preview function caused my Profiler to jam. It started switching in delay (i'd see the preview preset switching in the RM, and the Profiler would follow 6-7 seconds later) until it just stopped responding altogether.


    Really hoping for a fix. I'm just going to stop using it for now.

  • Thanks, guys, but I have the correct version and the latest OS.


    It was eventually resolved by exporting all my data to rig files, clearing the db files and re-importing everything -
    which is exactly the point. You can't safely rely on the Rig Manager with your data.
