Hi All,
I've been using the ("good") pre-release version of V6i for a while now on my PC and it's time to think about the update/upgrade/final version. The main reason I've waited so long is that I hate to upgrade software that is central to a project while in the middle of said project.... bad things can happen to good projects with average upgrades (sometimes). However, now the project has finished and I'm keen to update and get all the fixes I can get.
Anyways, before I take that leap....
Near the end of the pre-release cycle, e-on changed how V6i calculated its resource management and things went from reasonably working (the "good" pre-release version) to not so reasonably working (the one after the "good" pre-release version). E-on said that they were going to change the resource calculating/allocating/management back to what it was in the "good" pre-release. Did they end up doing that? i.e is the memory/resource management now (fully patched, final release v6i) back to what it was under the "good" pre-release version of v6i.
Also, if for whatever reason - is it simple enough to just un-install the final and go back to the pre-release version?
(Basically, the v6i pre-release runs better and is more stable than v5i fully patched ever was for me, so I'm a bit concerned at the chance of going backwards.)
Separate question - what isn't stored in the vue scene files - is it only textures it references externally while storing all geometry, orientations, material formulae, ... within the scene file?
Thanks.
