Hello :slight_smile:

The Plugin shows up, but nothing happens.

It even says the command is not known.
Is it because both Versions are too new?

Hey Wim,

Good Idea, I will share the results here once I know whats going on.

I got the solution, Luxions (Keyshot) support was really supportive to solve that issue.
My Ressource Folders in the Regestry Editor were located on folders that are not locally stored, but on my One Drive.
Keyshot does not like that. So changing those to a local value did the trick. (Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Luxion\KeyShot 11)

The Reason Rhino said “unknownCommand” was due to the wrong version of the Plugin that I had installed (9 instead of 11).
So there were 2 Reasons for that not to work, nothing to do with Rhino as Wim already predicted.

Hope that helps someone esle who is running into this issue.

Buenas tardes
Al acabar de diseñar un modelo en Rhino7, y ejecutar el comando KeyShot11Render, no me abre el programa KeyShot… pero sí me aparece en la barra de comandos como que se ha ejecutado el comando. He leído los comentarios, pero no me termina de quedar claro cómo solucionar el problema…
Un saludo

Hi Julio,
I hope i understood your message correctly, have you tried using the solution the message before? For me the issue was the Ressources Folder, and that it was stored on a cloud folder- is that the case?
