heyas! my, er, secret sources have informed me today that vue is about to finalize the vue patch. so if you have any last glaring errors, speak up now! also, they would like to know if any multi-processor win 2000 users have any specific concerns/comments about that.

well... i have some concerns. i still can't open kate's orange flower vob. also, i saved the xfrog pine cone as a vob, and it lost all it's 3 different material part groups. now that can't be right...!

I'll have to rely on you folks here for bugs. Right now I can't tell the difference between what the program can't do and what I can't. I'm learning though. Question: Is it possible to color map the trees? That is do seperate colors for the leaves and bark. Thanks, jJ

No good deed goes unpunished ...

Bloodsong, have you tried deleting the file and then reloading it? I don't have any trouble opening it. If you still can't get it to work, I'll send you the dxf or 3ds and let you make your own vob. Kate

heyas; kate, yep, i re-extracted it from the zip file i still had. i don't know what could be wrong. the blue flower works fine. hd: yes, you can do that, you need to open the material summary and do it there... (now where's that url to guitta's tutorials...?) http://members.tripod.com/~ggbe/tutorials/tutorials.html the main page is http://start-at.arte/ i think.

Bloodsong, let me know where to send it and I'll kick out an updated vob and the original 3ds file to you. The zip is about 4 megs or I can split them up into two smaller files. Kate Shrew@shrewslair.com

heyas; thanks, kate :) go ahead and send it to sphynx@gis.net. (4 megs is small, right?? ;) ) (wait, ten megs is half an hour... where's my calculator...?)

Couldn't send the whole thing, so I just sent you the zip of the 3ds file since it's much smaller than the vob. Kate

heyas; great, thanks! (and i'll see if vue loses the group information again when it makes the vob!) :)

I have one gripe with 3.1. Vue used to remember what directory you last used to load pics/objects etc from. Now it seems like it doesn't. It's kinda annoying to have it constantly start out at the default Vue directories of Bitmaps/Objects, since I don't keep anything there. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think it used to be different. Gail
