Stop Working on Save
Hi, Every time I go to save a project the programme stops working, I've had the software for a couple of weeks and this problem has just started. I've reloaded the software and still get the same result.
I am running Windows 7 64 bit with a ASUS HD6770 (Radeon) 1GB Video Card Intel(R) Core (TM) i3-2100 CPU@3.10 GHZ Any clues why it might crash and loose all my work? Thanks would appreciate the help |

Re: Stop Working on Save
Never heard of this one before.
Does it crash with a simple cube model being saved or is it a specific model that is causing it? |

Re: Stop Working on Save
Hi Andy
After it did it a couple off times of trying to save some complex shapes I tried using a simple cube, again it crashed...so I went back and deleted the whole programme including the original download. After uploading a new version (2nd time) It is working ok again and I'm able to save I am now wondering if operator error is the culprit or my windows? Anyway good news is I'm up and running again and loving the useability and simplicity of AC3D. I just need to keep saving my work at regular interviews in case the bug appears again! |

Re: Stop Working on Save
it might have been two versions installed into the same folder or it could be a problem with the graphics card drivers, when the screen is forced to refresh after the save dialog is closed. Some drivers are designed and tested in single-window (game) mode and don't like the desktop environment. You could try updating your drivers.
If it doesn't crash when pressing control+s but does crash when using a file dialog to give a file name then that may indicate the problem. Other than that, let us know if you experience it again. Thanks for your kind comments - enjoy! |
