Back Hello, I'm running the same; GF 5700 FX with 56.72 drivers. I know these cards aren't officially supported so I guess there's not much can be done :¬( Yeah, 3.5.1 is rock solid here too, though I do still get the crash when browsing to and loading a new texture, which is becoming VERY annoying. My boss will laugh in my face though if I tell him I want a Quadro ;¬D J.

Jeff, what graphics card are you running? Seems that xsi4 is prone to crashing more often when running a "cheaper" game card. I'm running a Geforce FX5700 card, rock solid in v3.5 but seems dodgy in v4. Just curious. -- --Original Message-- -- From: Jeff Powell [mailto:JeffP@(protected)] Sent: Friday, June 25, 2004 4:04 PM To: 'XSI@(protected)' Subject: RE: v4 crashing on codec selection and preference problems.
Yeah, I get the crash on codec selection, but this seemed to be saved with the scene I was using. Odd. Had to revert to an older scene. :¬( I also, get a crash 5 times out of 10 when opening the rotoscope options ppg. Same goes for opening a texture ppg and loading a fresh texture. Very strange. J.

Hi list,
is anyone else noticing alot of crashes in v4 when trying to adjust the codec settings when doing a capture in the view port? Happening here on a number of machines... also I remember reading that xsi now logs crash info to a file that you can then e-mail to softimage. Any body know what this feature ( if indeed it is one) is call and how I might be able to switch it on/use it?
Also I can no longer edit my preferences from the File>preferences command... it opens a preference explorer but says "There are no nodes to show in this view" . Is the preference explorer somehow linked to settings in the xsi explorer or scene explorer? I can still edit my preferences from an xsi explorer so I'm not really stuck but still... weird!
