I have installed both versions and now it is not able to open VDMX6 /plus. It crashes.


Can I send bug reports?

I just sent the reports through VDMX5 report.

Question, did you install VDMX6, then install VDMX6 Plus? If so, there’s an issue where VDMX6 Plus modifies the install of VDMX6. To test this, simply reinstalled VDMX6 and see if opens.

Thanks

No, I only had the VDMX6 Plus version 1.0.3 installed. When I installed V 1.0.4, both stopped working.

I deleted the vdmx6 versions, and reinstalled the previous version vdmx6 plus 1.0.3. It opened correctly. I then installed version 1.0.4. and it also opened correctly without any problem so far.

Face detection looks amazing!

Yes, everything seems to be working correctly at the moment.

I then installed the 1.0.4 to see if its resolved but cannot open it. it keeps crashing repeatedly. I have restarted the computer, but stil keeps crashing. This happens on both, Macbook pro M1 and on M2 Mac studio

Wow wonderful work ! so much fun using and iPhone in Continuity mode too ! so much potential. Have a slight issue with the blurred faces not working and only outputting a mask not a comp image. Sending a bug report over to try get to bottom of it. Can’t wait to use some face tracking QR codes in a show soon :)

Hey Dan!

Got your bug report, thanks, I think it’s a macOS13 thing, should have it fixed in a release later this week / next week!

Just a note on this thread, I removed the 1.0.4 release and replaced it with the 1.0.5.
There was a minor regression with receiving Syphon feeds in certain cases related to one of the crash fixes that is now corrected.
