crash when moving points
« on: October 04, 2008, 01:37:46 am »

I get a crash when im in point edit mode and select a point and then using the arrow keys to move the point (instead of switching to the move tool). Why is this? is there a fix for it? Im currently using ver.95 (cause is supposed to be stable but it crashes on me all the time.

I find the newest beta versions more stable.  The recent beta versions have fixed this bug.

I need more details to reproduce this.  What is the date of your v0.95?  Is it the latest one (02-Apr-07)?  Are you using the mouse at the same time as the arrow keys (such as drag-selecting or scaling points and typing the arow keys with the moust seill clicked)?

That is correct steve i am using the mouse and moving points my version is the latest beta this has crashed on every version of anim8or for the last 2 years i really wish this to be fixed as it screwed up a game demo release date since some models didnt get saved in time of the crash meaning i lost over 12 hours of work(i had been working all day and was doing some simple mesh clean ups and smoothing when it happeded for the umpteenth time.) Plz fix this i find that modeling like this can be very fast

If you get the latest beta versions they have these bugs removed.  I find the modeling and everything to be MUCH less buggy in the new versions, the only thing you'd want to worry about is the ART renderer which you can't use in v0.95 anyways.  So I'd advise you use the newest beta version and just not use the ART raytracer.
