Is Orca v3 compatible with Orca v2 for Weight?

Plug Ins Orca3D

When opening in Orca v3 a Rhino file that was with Orca v2, previous weights are loaded as “(local)” but values as 1.484 kg/m in Orca v2 are now 1.484 kg/mm in v3. Values have not been converted !

Lay, thanks for pointing this out. Let me try to reproduce it here and get back to you.

Lay, which version of Orca3D are you using? You can check this in Help/About Orca3D. The current version is 3.1.7.

I was using 3.1.7

I haven’t been able to reproduce this issue. When I save a file with weight properties in V2 and then open it in V3, the units are correct on the materials (even though they are local). Then if I change the Rhino units or the Orca3D units the materials (and the weight report) update correctly. Would you mind sending the file to me at support@orca3d.com?

Lay, just to check, did you open the file with File/Open (as opposed to Insert, etc.)?

with File/Open
I will try to prepare a file for you.
