Ac3d 8.5 out now!

[Andy]

The attached file will fix the problem with the Object-library menu wrongly being overwritten by "Save <file>". Use it to replace the existing tcl/ac3dops.tcl file.


Apple caused a lot of problems with their updates and you may be correct wth the hierarchy window (and others) not updating after being changed.


I'll work on this and we'll an release an update soon.

Its not the duplication taking time - it's the Hierarchy box not updating immediately to show its been done. So it maybe the window drawing like in the texture window....

Thanks Andy - that fixed the Object Library box.

Hi Laurie,


As you last upgraded in 2016, you'll need to upgrade your license in order to use the latest release.



You can buy a new license with an upgrade discount here:

Andy, I tried installing the upgrade (it's been a while) and got an error saying that my Tcl is the wrong release.
"lib/tcl8.6/init.tcl: version conflict for package "Tcl": have 8.6.10, need exactly 8.6.6"
The dialog says that this probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly. The actual filename that shows is simply tcl8.6 so I'm confused and dismayed.
Cheers,
Barry

You may have installed one version over another. Try installing to a new folder.

Hi, Andy. Didn't work - I received the same error message.

Which platform are you using? If on Mac, some non-standard decompression programs can cause problems after downloading.

Suggest uninstalling/deleting AC3D and reinstalling from the latest download. It sounds like you have two versions at the same location. Tcl 8.6.10 is from the latest AC3D 8.6.6 is from an earlier AC3D.
