Newest driver and maya 2025

[nuntavit]

Hi

I wonder if anyone using the newest driver, 10.9.1 with maya and have some unknown node left in maya 2025.3. To recreate this, open maya and save the file and reopen, there will be unknown node in the outline. When I roll back to 10.9 then that didn't happen, so I suspect it something created and left behind with the new driver.

Thank,
Nuntavit

Yep, I've got the same problem on Windows 10 running Maya 2025. It started after I upgraded to "3DxWare64_v10-9-1_b650".

It leaves this node in the Outliner "_UNKNOWN_REF_NODE_fosterParent1"and seems to be connected to another invisible node called "SpaceMousePivot1".

Deleting both then saving doesn't help because the next time I open the Maya file, both nodes return.

It's very annoying and I've rolled back to "3DxWare64_v10-8-20_r372" where this doesn't happen.

The general rule is, if there's no issue with your currently installed 3DxWare driver, don't update/upgrade unless the software you use(Maya in your case) is updated/upgraded to a degree that it is no longer compatible with the driver.
