HD instance does not work with load items from scene!? Does anyone else have this problem. Using HDinstance 1.7.2. What can I do about this?

I've just done a scene using exactly what you mention & works fine for me ... with the latest build of both LW & HDI. I did find however that if you parent the object layers to a null & then load the null from the scene it will not work for some reason (not had time to solve that one as I was in a deadline rush) so I just simply got rid of the null, parented all the subsequent object layers to the the first layer & presto.

Hope that helps .. if not you might need the latest HDI build perhaps.

Ah Thats it I think. I also had my objects parented to a Null. Going to check it out...

Thnx a lot!!!

Any particular reason why you are not using 1.8.1?

No not really. I always keep my third party plugin directory in a backup folder so I can install it just by copying it back in to the lightwave folder when I do a fresh install of lw.
Just installed 1.8
