Nomad Sculpt 2.4 Freezing Issues on iPad Pro (iPadOS 18.6.2)

Bug Report
1

Hi everyone,
I have a 3rd-generation iPad Pro running iPadOS 18.6.2, and for the past two days (roughly since Nomad Sculpt auto-updated to version 2.4), the app has been having issues. It doesn’t crash, but it completely freezes. Sometimes it eventually recovers (very rarely), but most of the time I have to force-quit the app.

The issue also happens with extremely simple and lightweight projects, so it’s not a performance or file-size problem.

Is there any way to downgrade?

I have 1.82TB free out of 2TB, so it’s definitely not a storage issue.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or workaround!

You can’t downgrade and it’s not going to be fixed quickly if people are vague on “when it freezes”.
I can fix things very quickly (one day + release the next day) if I have a way to replicate things, but it can take a while if I have no idea what’s happening (I need to know, which,operation causes the crash/freeze).

There are some known issue that I’m fixing but I don’t know if it’s going to fix your issue as it’s missing precision.

Thanks a lot for your quick reply!
Unfortunately, the freeze happens at completely random moments, during any type of operation, so I’m not really able to give you a reliable way to reproduce the issue.

Is there any kind of application log I can extract or send you?
Maybe there’s something in there that could help pinpoint what’s going on.

As a last resort, I can try to screen-record the issue, but since it’s random it may not be very meaningful.

Thanks again for your support!
Mattia

Nah don’t bother, I think I know the issue and the release should come soon.
Afaik it mostly impacts old projects, not the newly created one.

If the issue persists in 2.5, just let me know (hopefully live tomorrow, but no guarantee).

Actually I managed to fix some crashes but so far I couldn’t replicate any freezes.

  • do you use the pencil with hover?
  • when it freezes do you still see the cursor moving (the orange/red one)?

There are some app logs (I doubt they will be useful for freezes though).

I’m experiencing a lot of crash and freeze in version 2.4 and 2.5

I have an ipad air and it’ always stuck at 59.98% after every boolean operation that includes mirrors.

I tried to watch logs and it “prints” an empty line.

Never happened since i’m using it in 1 year. A friend of mine is experiencing the same issue with his ipad air

Should be fixed in 2.6

Dear Stephane,

thank you for the wonderful app that is Nomad Sculpt.

in the change log on this forum, it seems there is version 2.6. But my iPad Pro (2024) still shows version 2.5 in the main menu. In the App Store, it does not allow for any updates, as if my version of nomad is fully updated. Any thoughts on this?

Thank you in advance!

In my case it happens mostly when I use the solo feature, and when I do step back or step forward.

2.6 is under review, hopefully the issue will be fixed.
