Suddenly a lot of things quit working in TS 6.6. Nothing will will look ahead along a path, not even a camera or light ( it has worked for a couple of years). Nothing will will look at an object while moving along a path and it has for the same couple of years. Unrendered primitives are not the same shape or size as the rendered shape. Often I can't point edit, and I can no longer add edges. I also have TS 5 on board and now I difficulty creating a simple cube. Sometimes I will only get one face of the cube.


Recently I lost my graphics card and a 1 gig memory chip, maybe lightning. I'm back to using my NVIDIA nForce MSI K7 on board graphics which worked well before I added the 3rd gig of memory and the now defunct graphic card.


None of my other software seems to have problems. MS Flight sim. works properly.


Any ideas or suggestions? I'm new to this forum so please forgive me if I'm not following proper protocol.

Have you tried reinstalling TS 6.6?

Sounds like it's eggs got scrambled.
Open your trueSpace folder and delete the 'truespace.cfg' file.
Re-start trueSpace and see how it goes.

If that didn't fix it, then save/move/copy/backup/whatever your user-created scenes, objects, libraries, textures, etc and then reinstall tS.

I reinstalled TS6.6 as suggested and my functions have returned, except skittish...now I'll try to see if bones will work. They never have.

Thanks for the advice.
