N PROGRESS: NDO stuck in path open

elias leoanrd

So when I convert anything into a normal map (selection, path, shape, or just painted shape) it Ndo does his job and makes a bunch of layers and creates a normal map. But the panel where you normally control your normal map (size, contrast, depth,...) is just stuck in a convert path to normal map button.

As seen below, i selected the rectangular normal map that I just created with the selection to normal map. Normally i should get a small menu where I can edit the normal map, but now it just shows the path to normal map button.

(running on windows 8 )

Hey Elias! If you go to the "Paths" panel in Photoshop, do you find any old paths lying around? If so, delete them and this problem will go away. It seems they were not automatically disposed -- let me know if this was the case and I'll know how to proceed with a fix

Thanks! You unraveled my mystery

Hello,
I also have the problem of nDo stuck in a convert path to normal map button, but this only happens when I have 3do viewer open. Ndo will finish building the layers and do the grouping. The viewer will update and I can rotate the model, but nDo is frozen and I have to kill the SUITE.exe. The fix for Elias was to delete all paths in Photoshop but for me my path list is empty. Has anyone else seen this problem?
-Thanks Josh

Could you post a screenshot of your layers, please? Also, does this happen everytime you work with NDO?
