3D Models Not Working Version 4.1.3.1

#1 Post by MarkF » 03 Jul 2021, 15:07

Just installed version 4.1.3.1 and found several models that do not display properly.
Windows 7 all three graphics modes.

One is broken in both versions . However, it displays properly in FreeCAD.

The problem is in vrml 1.0 format. To work around you can convert the models to vrml 2.0 format using FreeCad.
Just open and resave them. We have fixed this bug for the next build.

Not sure if this is related, but I have a problem since updating where the 3D visualisation tool seems to get stuck in a loop attempting to load models and I have to kill it with the task manager (Win10). The models appear OK in the pattern editor and the 3D model search tool finds all the models on the PCB. It's just the visualiser that gets stuck. This happens on all PCB designs.

Another note on this problem. If I leave it running long enough it consumes all the memory. Infinite loop for some reason.

Confirmed this bug on a second machine.
Updating from 4.1.3.0 to 4.1.3.1 (Win10 PC) caused the 3D render to end up in an infinite loop.

Thank you for report. We have tested and found the similar problems on Win10/64. We have fixed them for the next build.
To around the problem you can install and work temporarily on DipTrace 32 bit version.
