Cargo Feedback

We are aware of asset imports failing on both Windows and macOS for a portion of our users with the latest update. This currently affect a portion of our users across all DCCs. We are actively diagnosing the log files we have received from affected users and are working on a hotfix. Stay tuned to this post to stay up to date.

We are aware of a current issue where Cargo is failing to load.

Don't know why the assets imported from Cargo to UE5 (5.4) looks extremely low quality. I tried to increase the texture streaming pool, to set the project to Cinematic and so on, but nothing fix the problem. Just to be sure I tried to use Cineware and I've imported the kit from C4D (with redshift materials) to Unreal and the difference is simply crazy (look at the screenshot to understand). Also I've noticed that the alpha channel isn't working with native UE5 kits. Any suggestion?

Following the most recent update, Octane materials are not importing into C4D. Prior to the update, they imported and rendered just fine. After updating, they import as standard materials. I made sure my renderer is set to Octane, and I'm connected to Cargo, but I always get standard materials. I tried numerous times. I reinstalled Cargo but it made no difference. I then tried changing my renderer to Redshift and importing a model, I got Redshift materials. I switched back to Octane and this time I got Octane materials. However, I get a black screen when rendering. I tried different project files with different octane materials, they render just fine, it's only my project file with materials imported from Cargo that do not render. I attempted to import the model again (like before, Redshift first, then Octane) but this time I got broken materials? I've attached a screenshot to show. Please look into this. I have no choice but to manually set up all the materials now.

We're aware of an issue where password reset is non-responsive inside the application.

Unless I'm doing something wrong, the Redshift standard materials on the vehicles in C4D via Cargo are inverted in the roughness channel by default. This requires me to go in and remove the invert node that has been placed in there. So I thought I'd let you know in case this wasn't something I was doing wrong on my end!

Is Mac support coming for Cargo?

With Blender 4.2 release not too long away (1 month) I think support for the version should be added soon so when 4.2 comes out Cargo is ready to go rather then waiting the near month after 4.1 release to get an offical update as the last upate broke the compatibilty. Info of current progress and expected release time can be found here: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/milestone/19 (note that 4.2 is currently in Beta which is where only bug fixes will be made and this is the timeframe for addons to update in preperation for 4.2 release)

We want to let our community know that Cargo support for Maya 2025.1 is on our radar, we'll share updates here.

We want to let our community know that Cargo support for Houdini 20.5 is on our radar, we'll share updates here.
