[hidalgo]

Hi all

for some reasons i cant have the spdl shaders to show up in the render tree, i can see the category, but all shaders inside it seems missing, someone know how to eventually to a reset for the category?

Thanks

Changed your workgroup or user directory recently?

no change recently, ive checked again and i can import the shaders from the browser, but the spdl category still is empty..

What SPDL shaders are these?
I would check that the SPDL files are actually there.

[hidalgo]

well, i have some arnold spdl, but there are the standard spdl shaders that should be there and none of them are visible in the render tree, but if i search them theyre folder i can see them and add them separately..very weird..

When you say "SPDL shaders", do you mean shaders that appear under the SPDL Shaders group in the Preset Manager?
Because by default that group is empty in the Preset Manager. Because I have SItoA installed, the only shaders I see under there are Arnold shaders (and with 2.8 you will see just one shader).

yes sorry, i mean exactly the spdl prest manager and sitoa spdl plus i have few others, but none of them are visible..

If you upgraded to the latest SItoA, you won't see the shaders listed under SPDL Shaders anymore.

In general, missing shaders in the Preset Manager means missing SPDL files.
You can still find the shaders because you are loading Presets, not SPDLs.

actually i am still with the 2.5 and i had this problem even with a previous version, but i should try updating to the latest one and see if something change..
