RCob, check your DirectX :D

Yea i thought i had it, so went and downloaded it, again, and it works now! thanks everyone!

wait what? I'm having the same problem as rcob...what do I do?

Delphy, i love love love your work! thank you so much!


on a side note to the people who have been around since the before time... simpose? anyone? I just opened up the program and its all flashbacks right down to the purple background! so awesome.

Make sure you have DirectX Runtime installed

Sorry, I'm not computer savvy...what is directx? And where do I get it...?

There's a link on the Overview page...

ooo...lol k. I overlooked that part...thanks daluved1
I'm also reading your tutorial for the basic mask editing.
thanks a bunch!

I just ignored the errors, they pop up all the time, and successfully made a new mesh bangle!! Oh thank you and your tool so much!!

I guess those errors are cause by the 3D preview,, it doesn't work for my bangle, but it does not matter while other parts work just great!!

Awesome! I can't wait to test this. Thanks!

Awesome update! I just love the new 3D preview!

Okay sorry for all the posts

It seems that the mesh for the afBody Apron is...um...warped?

Anyhoos...I think I've about finished that guide thing I was working on. Of course a few things are unanswered, but hopefully others can fill it in.

using vista 64-bit, got everything (i think?) installed. ignoring the error message (continuing instead of quitting) doesn't seem to make the program impossible to use. then again, first time using it, so i wouldn't know. i just want NRM and item-specific thumbnails for them hahah.

when i first opened the CTU, i checked Enable 3d Preview and that's when I got my error message:

daluved1: Not all the TGI links are bumpmaps - only one.

With regards to the apron, we just load the meshes as we see them - so it might be the actual mesh looks deformed.

Also, yes, HSV patterns not working is by design.

ailivina: When you run the program it has a version number in the title bar. That version number should match the one listed on this thread (1.8.3518.1616). If it doesn't then you aren't using the latest version.

I just tried the exact same thing with a sock and it works perfectly.

alphose: Did you make sure to update your DirectX using the link as specified in the Installation Prerequisites?

forwardmotions: Purple background? It's Color.SlateBlue. :P

Wow. Thank you, I love the 3D Preview.

Bummer, Framework 2.0 is not compatible with Vista 64b and would not let me even install it. Unless I am completely blind I did not find any link provided allowing me to do so. I was looking forward to this

Guess I am stuck using 1.7, ah well, least there is TSR Workshop - Thank god.

Have to agree with Playful: Vista 64b is not supported.
I know that you wanted to make it working on PC, Mac, Windows, Linux, whatever... is there a way to get it to work on a 64b system, too?
And no, TSR Workshop is no alternative for me

Anyway, great work! Would be greater for me if I wouldn't use 64... :D

I have installed everything framework and DirectX, but it says that 3D view currenlty not initialised? Also from time to time an error pop up, well...pops out But I just ignore it...any thoughts?

Does it initialize when you add a new design?

Oh...yes :P

Cool. But yeah I get the error message at what seems like random times, and some CAS parts became unavailable as well. I did not erase them. I redownloaded the CAS part files and they are selectable again.

How do you install the 3D view?
I would really benefit from that where ever it is.
Wont let me install that framework as it's not compatable with Vista

I got this error:

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Did I ever tell you you're my heroes? You know it! Thanks Team!
