R3 app crash 5 times today.

I seem to be getting Zbrush R3 crash when either saving a tool, sellecting one, or clicking of the eye icon for a sub tool. This is the last app crash I had, it was trying to save my work, which iv not lost a hours worth, again!

Window 7 Home 64, 8GB Ram, Intel Q6600. Plenty of HD space. App installed on a Kingston SSD 128gb. ZB is running as Admin.

Thanks for any relivent info on this.

Hey Tez

I was having the troubles you describe with R2. Constant crashing, crashing while saving ect… I worked with Pixologic support and after a lot of troubleshooting they opened a new download and asked that I reinstall the software from the newly downloaded files. It worked. I cannot say why but I got rid of every trace of zbrush, re-downloaded the program and installed, no more problems. If your download link is still active you may want to give it a try. Uninstall zbrush and delete its directory then reinstall. It may not work for you but its worth a try.

Other things I did while attempting to fix the problem was to check my ram, rebuild my system ect…

As far as working in zrbush; I would recommend not closing in on the max amount of polys. If your working close to or at your max amount of polygons I think you risk crashing.

best of luck trying to fix the problem.

Hello Ben, thanks for your reply. My system has not been changed since v3 came out, plus this is a new install of windows. Maybe its a windows 7 issue?

I did have crashes in v3, but not often, nothing like this, im almost scared to touch any button, as I know this could be more sculpting time down the drain.

It does seem to be sellecting a sub tool, tuning the visability off, or saving a sub tool. As things stand now, I feel like a public beta tester, im not getting much done within my normal workflow.

I think im going to go back to v3.1 to be honnest, as it seems around every corner I hot a new problem.
