Alpha 0.16 - shader forge freezing 100% of the time

Marc 10 years ago updated by Freya Holmér (Developer) 10 years ago 7
every time I either select "open in shader forge" from the material inspector or from the shader forge start window the plugin completely freezes.  This also happens when trying to create a new shader.
Did you remove the old installation before installing the new one?
Which OS are you running?
Which Unity version are you running?
i did not remove the old version. i did what i usually do which is just import the new version.
OSX mavericks
latest unity version
If you remove the whole Shader Forge installation, and reinstall, do you get the same problem?
ok, that seemed to do the trick. But I had to restart after install.  SF opened but ran extremely poorly.  Restarting fixed it.
Great! Glad it worked out :)
So I synced my project to another computer (Window 7 machine this time) with the asset server and I can't use SF.  Half the time it won't compile the shader and the rest of the time the UI crashes completely when I open the Shader Settings tab.  Oh, and the preview of the shader is just no longer there, which I suspect is why the shader is not compiling.

I'm going to remove and reinstall the plugin, but I was working with this pipeline without any issues prior to 0.16.

Here's what my UI looks like after I click on the Shader Settings tab.
Are you getting any errors in the console? What is the target platform set to in Unity?
