Yep, same problem here. I was testing out the Karma updates and at some point when hitting ctrl-S my hiplc files turn into hipnc.

Is this with an old version? I recall there being issues with early versions of 18.0

Same for me. The second I rendered Karma to Mplay the console said it switched to a non-commercial session.

Are render galleries working for you guys? I don´t know if It´s something to do with the non-commercial problem.

I would email support. They should be able to help you with recovering your work.

Hi Matt,

Any news on when this will make it into the non daily builds? I'm quite new to Houdini, so I don't want to be downloading often, I'd rather stick to a scheduled update if possible.

BTW. In just trying Karma out, what an excellent release so far, 4K preview rendering on the CPU, that's insane! Can't wait to see the GPU installment.

Cheers

Scott
