Hello,
Something strange has happened. For no apparent reason, the ecosystem materials in Vue6i has quit working. Everything else works fine but if I populate a terrain or plane with an ecosystem and then render it, it crashes everytime.
Now I have Vue6 Esp and Vue7 Complete and no such problem so I don't think it is hardware. Anyone have an idea as to what may cause this? I figured I would ask here before going to Eon.
Thanks...Any and all help appreciated...

Probably something got corrupted in the Vue installation. I'd suggest a reinstall. If the problems persists after reinstall, you might need to clean all traces of Vue from your system and then reinstall again. To clean all traces of Vue, do a search in this forum for posts by Chippwalters, I remember he recently gave a complete list of everything you have to do for that.
Good luck!

Thanks,
I tried reinstalling it but I didn't do the clean thing. I'll try that next.

Well, I have tried about a 100 variations and still can't get the Vue6i ecosystem to work. What is really frustrating is that (1) It worked fine then all of a sudden it didn't (2) Everything else works fine. Poser import and all.
Here is another quirk. I have a dual boot with WinXP Pro and WinXp64. I installed it in 64 and everything works great. I know...I know...why not just use the 64 bit version and leave it at that. Well, I use a lot of stuff on the 32 bit side and it's just bugging me It iriatates me when something isn't working right.
Anyways, back to the drawing board (no pun intended)
Later...

Just an update for everyone.
It seems Vue6i doesn't like oddball 3 core CPUs like the one I had. I upgraded my CPU to an AMD Phenom II x4 940 3Ghz and the ecosystems work fine now.
Leave it to me to come up with unusual problems 8-)
Anyways, Thanks All...
