Hi guys,

The new HDA file save dialog in H20 messes up the save locations. Our HDAs go to a network location in Windows, and no matter if we specify UNC path or a mapped drive, the path gets a 'c:\' prepended.

Is there a way to restore the old dialog before that is fixed?

Thanks!

I don't know of a way, the closest workaround I can think of is creating a shelf tool that uses the last selected node, prompts for a file path, and saves it via the HOM functions.

Make sure you log a bug and mark it as SEV1.

Hey guys, any news on this one? It is pretty severe and breaks our workflow so much.

Have the same problem.

The problem is that it works for me... both saving to a mapped drive letter, and a UNC path (with forward slashes), eg. //server/share/staff/matt/test.hda

There may be some extra or different step that I'm not doing, or some difference in environment, or something, so I'd appreciate detailed steps to reproduce.

Forgot to mention, worked for me in 20.0.576 and 20.0.587.

OK, nm, I think I might have found the problem...

Should be fixed in tomorrow's build

I this fixed? In which build?

My problem: I save the the hdas, they are in the correct spot, they show up in the asset manager, but when I press tab and type in their name, they don't show up. Is this the same problem?

Unfortunately, the "fix" in yesterday's build had its own problems, but today's build should be fully able to handle backslash paths.

Nope, please file a bug for that. Please include detailed steps to reproduce the problem, and any relevant details about your setup.

Testing with 590 and it seems like it's fixed, thanks!
