Issue with Core Library and 3.5

BFD3 General Discussion
1

I’ve been with BFD from the beginning, so please allow me to b*tch briefly. I’ve been fiddling with this for hours, read both this forum and Knowledge Base for some answers, but nothing.

I’ve installed 3.5 and although I have other expansions, for now I’m just wanting access to the Core Library and Expansions Crash, London Sessions, Jazz Noir. All of them are in a BFD directory on a separate SSD drive.

The expansions all work fine. However, the Core Library is having a couple issues. First, in the GUI, each kit (and preset) is listed twice – one entry shows the usual little picture of the kit, and then a duplicate entry shows a little white page with BFD3 on it (and the same kit name). When I attempt to load one of the white page entries, nothing happens – no surprise there. But when I try to load the normal entry, the one with the kit picture, some kit pieces don’t load, and most of them don’t have the little kit piece graphic in the mixer (just a graphic of a microphone).

I’ve reset and scanned the content location numerous times, same result.

I should probably confess here that after I downloaded the Core Library zip file, I unpacked it myself – MUCH faster. Could that be the issue? I sure don’t want to do another lengthy download –

What do you mean, you unpacked it yourself?

It is an executable file that needs to be ran like any other exe installer file.

This will definitely give you issues.

Hey Steve

What I mean is, I didn’t use the inMusic thingie, I went straight to the download, unzipped it, and ran the installer. It seemed to install normally

UPDATE: I’ve gone through and manually deleted the duplicate entries in the browser. Now, kits and presets and all their pieces (and the icons) seem to be loading like they should – apparently the duplicate entries was confusing the application resulting in some pieces not loading at all.

I’m confused as to how this happened… it’s feels like it was a holdover from the previous version. I did fail to mention that when I first installed 3.5, I absent-mindedly used the OLD licenser, before I remembered inMusic now owned and handled everything :laughing:

I had the same thing with duplicates too.

If you right click on a duplicate, and then click, ‘show in library’ you can usually delete them all at once.
