      ...I don't like the fact that everything is entirely relying on the internet now. I would like SU to come with installed libraries (as in previous versions)...

      I just recently moved my SU6 component library over to SU7. It really made things easier for me. Now, I don't need to mess around with the 3D Warehouse and the internet.

      No back button is really shortsighted. I can't imagine who thought this made sense.

      Edit: I agree wholeheartedly with JesseJames.

      It probably just shows the politicians ignorance of the subject they are legislating about.

      And this is probably the most scary thing of all.

    • RE: Internet Blackout - New Zealand

      This is scary, very scary. How does this differ from banning certain books from the library or banning certain speech? I will sign the petition.
      EDIT: So this deals with suspected copyright infringment, as I understand.

      @remus said:

      .....openGL is basically a library of methods that can be called from a program to draw stuff on the screen. problems start happening when the program asks the video card to do something it doesnt know how to do, better known as a bad driver (i.e. it doesnt interpret the openGL correctly).

      Relating this back to SU and your problems, if their have been any changes to the rendering pipeline in SU (what SU is asking the video card to do, and how it is asking it to do it) then this could cause your problems.

      Interesting, thanks. I think Google should address whether therewas in fact a change to the "rendering pipeline".

      I'm at the age where this kind of thing holds absolutely no appeal. Perusing these forums and engaging in the occasional discussion is all I need to satisfy my need to get "connected"

    • RE: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)

      Oh, I see. I was thinking you could "zorro" the model in any plane desired and then R-click "slice section" to achieve a section cut normal to that plane.

      Apparently this script does NOT work with my beer.

      Edit: I changed beer and everything is working fine....Thanks.

    • RE: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)

      I hadn't thought to do this, but this didn't work either. Funny, I've never had any problems whatsoever installing and using plugins. I'm obviously doing something wrong.

      I've invoked the slice-model option with the section cut plane inside and outside the model. I've tried grouping.....I've tried it with both drinking beer and not drinking beer....I've tried everything. Argggg...

      My thoughts are for a healthy life for you Mike...and for all of us. I'm about ready to embark on a 20 pound weight loss effort. I can't seem to get off my ass to start, though. I will look to Mike for inspiration.

      The Slice Section feature does not work for me. I've even deleted and reinstalled.....no worky. Am I the only one with this problem?

    • RE: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)

      Hi Chris, I tried that but...no luck. I zorro sliced a cube, activated the section cut tool, selected "Slice Model at Section" and erased said section cut, but nothing. I'll keep fiddling around.

      Edit: When I erase the section cut the model goes back to being "whole". The section cut always stays normal to the model surface not the Zorro cut.

    • RE: [Plugin] Zorro2 (beta)

      Dale, when I click on a section cut and select the "Slice Model at Section" nothing happens. I've read the tutorial, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I only have Zorro2.rb in my Plugins folder so it can't be a conflict with the original one.

      What a great feature this section option is!! I can't wait to get it working.

      an option for the sweep to start at the beginning of the line no matter where the profile is drawn would make this perfect. maybe a checkbox for start at path or start at profile. then maybe a normal(size of path) or distance from(size*distance from path) instead of the construction point. it seems a pain to make a construction point?

      I think this would be a great improvement. Regardless, this is a tremendous script, wikii. Thank you so very much!!

      Substituting "terrible" with assinine, childish or sophmoric would be more accurate.

      Check out Bush. It looks like he's in the middle of pinching one off.

      My God!! This has to the bottom of the barrel when it comes to what's known as "Bush Derangement Syndrome". You got it bad, don't ya?
