DBCooper Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 You didn't really say anything about when it is crashing. If you are mostly crashing making camera views, then it probably is a video card problem even if you are not using a 40 series card. If it's crashing doing something else, it could be almost anything from a problem in your plan or a bug in X18. Is it only crashing in one plan or does it crash even with a brand new 4-wall house? Really need some more info before anyone can give you better help. FWIW, I've been playing around with X18 and so far I haven't had any Chief crashes.

jtcapa1 Posted Monday at 07:18 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:18 PM I've been using X18 for a few months now without any crashes, but this public version must have made some change. When opening an X17 project in X18, there are many more error messages about "missing links" to the files inside that project, along with many missing textures and materials. No doubt an issue with search folders while loading, but I had one plan that would crash in Layout by just changing pages! Normally rock solid. I suspect it was these missing resources, as after a cold clean boot, I responded to the request while loading to find these missing resources. I took time to point X18 to the right places or replaced them with ones NOT missing, and it seems to be more stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
