I'm a Mac user and have had this exact problem but have been able to keep it to a minimum by following this rules of thumb: 1. Always let the previews, all of them, redraw as you modify textures. When previews are done you can change another element. (Yes I know that the update has made this less of an issue but it's still an issue) 2. At the first "Can't find texture" warning, immediately cancel out of the texture edits completly. Then go back and start the edit again. (works about 95% of the time for me) 3. If #2 doesn't cure it, I'll cancel out of the edits again, save, quite and relaunch. So far, given Vue's render speeds, I'm still way ahead in time compared to using Bryce even doing silly things like relaunching! Guess I'm trying to make lemonade out of lemons here. :) Additionally, recently using Disk Doctor and Repairing Permissions fixed a bunch of goofy program quirks - besides Vue's - in other programs as well on my system. Now I Repair Permissions after every program update. Mark
