Do you know what sequence of commands you did before this error occured?

(also - what does 'Der Vorgang' etc mean?)

Well, this is german message :) I was a little surpriced to see it in the english software :) but it means "Operation was end successfull " :?:

Before it comes I have created a line, convert it into poly, extruded, rotated 90 on the y axis, selected few vertex on one of sides and get them closer together, attached a *.tif file as a texture for the object, selected whole object, used surface - > devide. Well, I wanted to undo it because it was wrong way to deal it :) - I am realy new to 3D world. And then occured an error.
I hope it helps You a little - BTW a great program You have made.

Hi,

I have tried to reproduce this situation and the result was again the same.
http://www.mgadek.com/MOD/error.zip this link contains pictures of the steps I have made till the error comes:
1. Create a poly
2. Extrude it
3. Rotate 90° y axis
4. Select a few vertex
5. Move this vertex closer together
6. Apply a texture file to the object (included in zip file)
7. Menu Surface ---> Devide
8. Undo and error message.

I have make step 8 first time without a problem, I have switched then View from 3D window to XY window and back, and make step 7 and 8 again - then I have get this error messge.
Hope this help a little.

regards

Thanks - that's certainly one of the best bug reports I've ever seen - however I'm still unable to duplicate the error.

Please could you try running AC3D from the command line with -debug and see what the console output is? e.g.

cd "c:\program files\ac3d4"
ac3d -debug

thanks,

Andy

I think I may have found it - I found something anyway.

If your object contained any line surfaces - there is a problem if you divide a line twice.

If you got a message in your console "not joining start to end" etc - then this is it. Please confirm this.

You can duplicate this particular error by making a line (must be a line, not poly line), surface->divide twice, undo - exception occurs.

I've fixed this and will release a new AC3D soon.
