not sure if this is a bug post, or just something I’m not understanding.
Symptom: select a face or group of faces, divide either horizontal, vertical, or standard, progress bar initiates, but freezes early, program stops responding I have to shut down the program.
History of the model, its been heavily modified, extrudes, scales, shifts, textures and materials added, smooth level 2 commit, compacted and optimized, more editing, bones added, then disabled for further minor editing (as instructed in anther post). I’ve restarted the machine, restarted the program without recovering the improper shutdown scene, same result.
6,505 pro version, graphic card driver updated, however laptop with a ati radeon, 512 meg ram, 1.8 ghz amd processor, low frag, plenty of hdd space.
I’ve had the same trouble earlier in the design of this model, specifically two modified rows of faces would lock up the program, and would not autosmooth. However it now appears that none of my faces will divide.
Have I maxed out my machine’s/graphic card’s abilities again? Will another compact or compress help anything?
I am still able to modify some, such as add additional bones in the hands, seems not to be a problem. The divide operation, however is giving me fits. Any advise would be much appreciated.
