Title: Blender whoas
Post by: C.M.Stone on May 14, 2001, 12:37:00 pm: Blender is giving me severe trouble. When I open it, any action taken causes the screen to clear. The outline of the program still appears in grey, but all buttons dissapear. When I move the cursor over the spot where a button was, it comes back, but any subsequent action causes the srceen to go again. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)
I've posted this on the VBB, and have recieved some replies, but still haven't been able to fix it. Any help is much appreciated, as I have several ideas for new fighters and cap ships.

Post by: The Claw on May 17, 2001, 06:29:00 pm: I had that problem... what OS u using? When I had '98 it did that, but now I managed to upgrade to ME it doesn't seem to...
Also, check drivers etc, like Mr Max ( (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)) said, and if that don't work, try reinstalling Blender to a different directory (although that didn't fix it for me, it apparently did for a friend)

Right now it isn't. Haven't checked the drivers and stuff yet, working sick hours is not conducive to learning to mod (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

Post by: aldo_14 on May 18, 2001, 12:34:00 pm: Blender seems to work fine with my copy of Windows (98 SE), although I do get some problems after saving to DXF (the computer restarts itself) - but that happens with other programs (IE5, Fifa, Championship Manger) so I know it probably ain't Blender.
