OpenNest 2 works on one machine, not another

I’m having an issue whereby the OpenNest 2 module fails to output any data on my Mac Mini but works fine on my MacBook. I’m using the “opennest2_1_nest_attributes” example file on both machines, downloaded from Petras_Vestartas’ OpenNest Food4Rhino page. I’ve attached screenshots from both machines for reference. The file on the Mac Mini shows an error in the “Geometry” component stating “Floating parameter Geometry failed to collect data”. The same file on the MacBook works just fine. I’ve also tried other files just to be sure, same issue.

I’m probably missing something obvious but I have not been able to find a solution. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Also attached is system info from both machines. Thanks!!

I have the exact same problem on my mac. it used to work but it broke after doing a incremental Rhino 8 update. I tested the same file on my windows pc and it worked so pretty sure it’s related to some kind of bug. You should contact the developer, and i’ll do the same, so it will hopefully get solved.

  1. is your coff disabled?
  2. delete opennest folder manually and install again, using terminal type:
  • cd “/Users/petras/Library/Application Support/McNeel/Rhinoceros/packages/8.0/”
  • open .
  • delete folder manually
  1. enable core framework Rhino - .NET Core vs .NET Framework

On my mac M1 after rhino update works without issue:

@nathanletwory is there a way to debug this?

Not sure, but keep in mind that this is on an Intel Mac, and you are on Apple Silicon (as am I).

You’ll have to make sure that your native binaries are built as universal files and that your .NET code is as AnyCPU.
