  • XPresso Rotate System Preset Issues

    Hello everyone!

    I’m pretty new to XPresso, but in previous versions of C4D I’ve been able to add a Rotate node from the system presets and use it to drive objects. I’ve recently upgraded C4D, and for some reason, the Rotate node is not working for me. I can bring in a file from an old version of C4D and it works, I can copy/paste my XPresso nodes from that old project into a new one and it also works. I’m wondering what the cause is though, so I can stop using these workarounds. I notice that the input ports on the new version are not highlighted by default, but I don’t know how to turn them on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Seems to be a bug that was introduced with R18. I can confirm the issue. I tried unpacking the xGroup and setting it up exactly like the one in R17 but it still doesn’t work in R19. I saved out the R17 preset and imported it into R19 and it worked, but when I unpacked it in R19 it broke again. I reported it to Maxon, FWIW.
