Bug Report

Section titled “Bug Report”

Overview

Section titled “Overview”

The Bug Report operator is a specialized diagnostic tool designed to collect comprehensive system information for troubleshooting LOPs installation issues and library conflicts. This operator should only be used for reporting problems to DotSimulate support - it is not intended for regular project use.

When activated, the operator gathers:

  • Complete system specifications (OS, architecture, processor)
  • TouchDesigner version and build information
  • Python version and executable details
  • All installed packages in the LOPs virtual environment
  • CUDA availability and GPU device information
  • All LOP operators present in your network
  • User-provided bug descriptions and additional context

The generated report is automatically saved to the bug_reports folder in your ChatTD installation directory and copied to your clipboard for easy sharing with DotSimulate support.

Requirements

Section titled “Requirements”
  • ChatTD Operator: The operator requires a ChatTD operator to access the Python Manager for virtual environment information
  • Active LOPs Installation: Must be used within a properly configured LOPs environment
  • Write Permissions: Requires write access to the ChatTD installation folder for saving reports
