Carrara 4 & Geforce 6600 GT

Carrara 4 & Geforce 6600 GT

Pete,

I also have a 6600 GT with the latest forceware drivers and haven't had
a lot of luck getting it to work with Carrara either. If antialiasing is
on, all I get is a black screen, and if it's off it works for a while,
but then eventually locks up.

One guaranteed way to lock it up is switch to OpenGL, actual lighting,
go to the tree modeler, select the blackash preset, full detail mesh,
show leaves, and switch back to the assemble room and start dollying
around. It will lock within seconds. On my laptop with a radeon 9000 I
can do that all day without a problem and on another machine with a 9800
pro, I can do it all day and it's antialiased!

Needless to say I prefer ATI cards for Carrara machines.

Regards,
Eric Winemiller
