    Hello, I'm Kevin. I have a problem with Omnisphere when I try to load external presets (not factory presets). They just don't load, it keeps in default preset. It doesn't show a pop-up error window either, just it does nothing. This includes external presets that come with the installation of the plugin. I have installed Omnisphere 2.6 from Pirate bay with a update to 2.8.2c. The problem was in both versions (old, and new). The plugin has the same problem when I try to load a multi, but in this case a pop-up appears that shows another location of my steam folder, something like: "F:/<username>/Spectrasonics/STEAM". And I don't have my steam folder in there. I think it's probably because this steam folder was formerly on another hard drive (the location that pop-up shows is where my steam folder was before) and I moved it to the default location after that, but I don't know how to set it up to change that location. It should also be made clear that in the initial screen of the plugin, it says that my steam folder is where I have it now, so I don't know what I could do. I hope someone can help me. Thank you.

    I've experienced this a bunch of times and its usually the zmap.index file in your soundsources folder. Its corrupted or just plainly not working. I've found reverting to 2.6 (2.6 seems to be the only version that can reliably generate a working zmap.index file for me), and deleting said index file and running the refresh browser function in the soundsources menu tends to be the only fix. Definitely worth a try, tho it is quite annoying and tedious.
