if it only crashes on other workstations it is probably not that XSI can't 
remember the path, because then it would crash on the same workstation on 
re-opening as well.

I suspect a mistake in the file path. The abc file might be accessible from the 
animators workstation but not from yours. Or maybe the animator used the crate 
plugin for the abc import and it's not installed on your workstation? Sorry if 
this sounds obvious.

Hi Walter,

Thanks for your reply.
It crashes right after loading, it kicks me right out of Soft.
I don't think it isn't a security problem because I can load the scene if my 
animator remove the link to the Alembic file.
For it to work I had to put the Alembic file in the root directory and re-link 
it. That is a pain. Haven't test it with Royal Render if I re-link it.
Copy All doesn't do the job.

Thanks,
Leoung

hello Leoung,

when did it crash?! during the loading process or when softimage trys to build 
the scenery
in the viewport?
Did you try to merge the saved scene in a fresh new Scene,
another option mute first the viewport/s and the merge, if this works check the 
Alembic-path.
Maybe it can also be a security-problem with the files, start softimage on the 
other computer as an administrator and then try to load the scene .
And last i dont no if softimage saves the alembics when Externals Files is set 
to Copy All!

 good luck

Walter

Sorry, I am probably not putting this correctly.
We can import the ABC file in but when we saved the scene and open it up on 
another workstation it crashes.
It looks like it doesn't remember the path to the ABC file. Is there a way of 
saving the scene so it is in the project file, like how it works with external 
files?

Thanks,
Leoung
