High number of crashes

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

I’m getting a lot of crashes almost always when navigating around a model (rotating mainly). I’ll spin the model round then boom > Spinning ball> Desktop. I get around this by saving every 10 minutes or so, but I still get caught ought now and then. I’m getting one or two crashes every half hour’ish.

Does this happen to everyone, should I wait for 3.5, or are there any optimisations I can do?

ZBrush 3.2 (Mac)
MacPro (8 core)
4GB RAM

Thanks.

This is something that we’ve seen a number of reports of with people running 8 or more cores. We’re looking into it with 3.5 for the Mac.

Thanks Aurick. I’ll look forward to the 3.5 update.

Also, check your ram.

Crashes caused by multicore, interesting. You pixo guys doing custom write barrier stuff? Or perhaps a bad bios/board?
