MSLD Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Anyone else having trouble with VW crashing? I'm working with large (10M+) files converted from DXFs. When I zoom in and out quickly, delete large chunks, step between classes quickly, it crashes. Maybe a memory buffer overflow? Anyone else have this problem? I'm using a Macbookpro 2GHz, 2GB RAM OS 10.4.11 VW2008SP2v3(83388) Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 10+mb is not a large file size! DXF's are famous for having issues related to poor translation and/or programing. You will probably eventually discover the discontinuities .. until then you will need to step thru the procedures and save frequently between operations. If it is a complex file , using WGR will help to isolate offensive elements. Quote Link to comment
Ride Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 My VW 2008 crashes under the same circumstances. I too am using a macbook pro with 10.5 and latest build of VW. I've found that once it starts crashing, it crashes over and over. I generally re-start my computer and it seems fine for a while. Otherwise, I have my autosave set for every minute, and report the problem to apple at every crash. Quote Link to comment
