Nevertheless this should be considers as a lot of 10.3 tables with ballsize and ballmass won't work correctly anymore.

 

???

To my knowledge we did not change anything there. Are you sure?

Tried ballmass and ballsize on a lately release table - didn't work. Then tried bmass and bsize - worked.

Core.vbs checks if ballsize/ballmass exist, and if so, sets Bsize and Bmass accordingly. Should be possible to declare them in core.vbs if they aren't in the table script though. On the other hand, there might be some specific reason why it's set up the way it is. What scripts are you having trouble with?

Hi! I can not seem to get my custom kyes to stick.

I can assign a button for ex. Cutsom 1 - Button 19, but the key selected, in my case 'home' for slam tilt.

The I click OK and the windows closes. When I open it up again the selected Key is blank.

Don't know why, but this build is getting flagged by AVG - I've bypassed it, but it's a nuisance still.

 

 

Also, anyone else seeing where if you try editing with a couple of tables so you can copy/paste stuff between them that the moment you close one of the tables the whole thing comes crashing down?

I get that crash a lot. Turning off all the layers before closing the table seems to help.

thanks nFozzy, I will try that and see if that helps. Trying to add stuff to all of my tables and that crashing demotivates me real fast...

I should mention closing tables with multiple open has always been crashy for me, it's not exclusively a 10.4 thing.

Yes, I too have a lot of crashes, and I almost all the time have several tables open at the same time, to copy/paste something. And the crashes for me almost always happens when drag-select with the mouse several objects, or when I right click to select something. I can't reproduce it at will, but you can be sure that it will crash when I have not saved the table :)

Sorry to say but me too. Only one table open, I work a lot on textures. So: render in blender and save, F3 in vpx import new texture, play table, Q Q, and repeat. After several repetitions of this 10.4 always crashes. If I in between press F4 to edit the material, this increases the change of crashing up to 1 out of 4. And this is not just on one specific table, have the same on multiple tables.
Also, it sometimes crashes when I have been in Blender a long time and alt tab to vpx.
And my machine is up to spec: core i7 with 32 gb on windows 10, so it should not be running out of memory. I am on revision 3198.

If it is possible to have the option to make the left or right wire ramp visible / invisible (RampType2Wire), and if it is possible visualize the angle of the line passing through the control point.

 

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback but if you encounter crashes it only helps us when you provide a crash dump of that crash ;)

 

 

If it is possible to have the option to make the left or right wire ramp visible / invisible (RampType2Wire), and if it is possible visualize the angle of the line passing through the control point.

 

Thanks

Did I understand it correctly: do you want a switch to hide one of the two wires? If so then why not use an invisible 2wire ramp and use another visible 1wire ramp? All these extra options need a place in the property pane and we run a bit out of space here, so I would like to add only options that aren't too special.

 

What do you mean with visualize the angle?

Here you have 2 crash files: the crash3209 was from yesterday, I don't remember what I was doing :) But I guess it was selecting something or rightclicking something. I also has a crash when I pressed F4 to get the materials window.

The crash3224 is from selecting all the objects in the table, by using the draw a rectangle with the mouse.

And several without from the crashdumps directory of windows, don't know if its any use to you, but here are they anyway:
