Forma <> Rhino 8 Plugin support

[kevin_fielding]

Hi, 

As with many companies out there, we're migrating our Rhino licences over to Rhino 8 to leverage some of the new feature improvements. 

In initial testing, the Forma plugin isn't compatible as the version of .net has changed in Rhino 8. Are there any plans to update this soon.  We would really like to continue our Forma <> Rhino interoperability testing. 

Thanks in advance, 

Kevin

Hello @Anonymous 

The Forma Addins v 0.7.0 works with Rhino 8 but still needs Rhino to run with admin rights.

Regular users will not see the Forma interface window in Rhino. However, the command bar will show. "Opened main panel." which is very confusing.

This is a significant issue that was already broadly reported in v0.6.0 last year. As you can see, it makes the plugin unusable in a professional environment where regular users are not typically granted admin rights.

I appreciate that the software is still in beta. Hopefully, this problem will be resolved upon its official release.

Regards.

Chris.

Thanks.

Hi Celene,

This error dialog means that something is preventing the plugin from loading. Can you please check the following for me?

1. Is Rhino 8 running in netfx mode?

2. What other plugins do you have loaded? Can you try disabling them one by one and see if that helps?
