Started a New scene, just one plane object. Tried to texture it with a Vray image, an old image from the last (crashing) scene came up in the file selector. I tried to load the new dot tga image and crashing. Something appears to be wrong with the Reset (ME) function

Please see crash report attached thanks

Peter

shouldn't you send this straight to tech support? They may not notice it here

Thanks jayr, is there an official way to send these crash reports to Caligari? This forum is an official Caligari user forum with a Bugs forum so I wonder why the bug-crushing team needs personal representation too :) (just kidding it's not a problem: although there's an element of truth to it, would seem very efficient)

I sent them to Paul (UK) last time but I don't want to be bothering him if he's not being paid by Caligari to do the work, doesn't seem fair

Just in to post another crash report as TS crashed again but from Modelside this time with the plane and rendering a Vray image to it- I'm suspecting a bad dot tga file and will try bitmap and png etc, probably me again :)

Thanks for replying jayr

Ouch sorry just noticing that I have the image file still open in PSP, that might be causing this problem of course although I'm sure I've had images open before when working on a texture. Bad practice though having files open in two applications. Wait a minute what about Dynamic Data Wotsit :)

I've had the ME default material get overridden before, so that's definitely possible. Reseting to default context fixes it though. I save a layout with everything the way I want it, so I can set it back after reseting to default context.

Spot on Jack, after a crash I found that TS had restored the default context and it worked next time

Sorry for being high maintenace!
