r8 bug? (duplicate/instances/arrange/spline)

Hi,
do you have the free version of solid spline installed? If yes please remove it, it does not work stable in R8 and causes crashes with instances.

heh heh now that was quick....and youre a genius...i loaded solidspline free the other day and couldn't get it to work...but forgot to remove it (doh!!!)...was thinking about getting pro from paul...do you by any chance know if it works with R8?
thanks.

It doesn't crash or anything but it only uses the default material, even if you apply another material. If you want grey splines though, it's perfect. :)

Mmmm kinda defeats the object though....maybe not...pity really.

dunno if you know, what does mymate do i've been on pauls website and the links don't work from it they go to solidsplines pdf?

Solid Splines Pro works fine here (with v 8.012) with all materials/shaders that I've thrown at it.

it was the free version i had installed..:wip:
maybe i ought to mail paul e for an answer on this, i see from the website that it states for r8 (pro v)...presume he fixed crashing etc...will ask about material bit for solid splines pro.

i don't really want instances problems...would rather to without to be frank.....don't suppose anybody knows if surface painter works without issues for R8?
any thanks for your efforts guys...i've removed the free version and it cures my problems....cheers srek:buttrock:
