LW crashing when opening file locations etc

[Hieron]

this has been bugging me for a while now:

Often when an Explorer like window pops up in LW to give in a file location (for instance when doing: set content dir, output file location etc), Layout crashes. Especially in this big scene I got here..

Anyone else experienced such a thing? (Win7, LW 9.6 64 bit)

I've flushed config files etc, but didn't help a thing. It never used to be an issue before...

Maybe try a new scene. Then Load From Scene.

I had similar issue today- but in Modeler. Hopefully quickly I found it was caused by viewport set to Textured Wired. Basically OpenGL driver made by ATI because of too heavy geometry or whatever other bug in driver, was crashing. When I used Textured or Wireframe in that viewport, I could open LWO no problem. As soon as viewport was set to Textured Wired, any time later, crash.

myeah will try a new scene, but this one is massive. Quite odd it crashes when in the browsing windows though :|

On top of that my main Win7 workstation 6-core has a crashing lwsn.exe with BNR, my god how I hate these ungraspable computer issues at 4 am. Tried that ProcMon thing and while procmon looks nice and dandy on the XP nodes, it goes absolutely mental on the win7 workstation. BNR is trying to access a specific few files (and failing to do so) nonstop....

The rendercontroller is Vista and has a sort of similar issue, but it doesn't need to render so no crashes there.. so meh.

But not having the 6-Core in the BNR nodes is really crappy. I've seen too many computer issues for one day.. for a lifetime really.

I have to run SN via my 5450, just can’t get it to work from my 5580.
