@Glenn-at-home was it Yor who recommended it?!

yeah what a hassle, kept throwing money at it with a local tech,

but don't feel too bad about it! Just joking ..

@Rich-O-Brien By email, I see the bell (showing new posts?) but only when I come here

@Rich-O-Brien yeah pretty sure I have that marked for Notification of Watched Topics?

Not getting them from the the few posts I've submitted. How do I change that on this new forum??

@Bryan-K well not completely fixed so I'm just getting a new puter, this time from the factory and not refurbished!

@deanbuckeridge we just took out the nvidia card and it runs OK but still issues so I'm getting a new computer in about a week, no idea what was wrong but it is a refurbished machine.

well darn, that first link I posted has expired? How do I un expire it, or increase the length of time it's good for, anyone know?

hey Box, thanks for the great tip about using the web version, it looks very nice, and my client loves it!

yeah I noticed that views tab, I'll use it next time!

Yeah I tried that, but you can't see any scenes in the 3d version.

that's OK though! I made one just showing the structure

Wow Box that is pretty nice! It would be great if they could hide things, any way to do that with this browser 3d model?

This is a teahouse design, we've already built all the pieces, I'll install it up in LA for a rock star. He's going to love seeing this!

Yeah I don't want to let them or anyone have the actual skp model, but rather a 3d model they can zoom and rotate.

Naw I'm thinking a 3d model that just my clients can view. There used to be a 3d pdf that worked OK, but I'm hoping for something better then that was.

well my first attempt looks awful, I'll have to learn how to use it.

what's another one where ownership isn't an issue??

Folks, what is the newest / best way to create 3d models to send to your clients? It's been a long time since I've looked in to this.

I've never changed any Open gl settings on any of my computers.

Now I have a pretty nice computer. Are these settings correct?

you've never seen this before? Me either ..

This is really weird, I'll click on a desktop image, it opens and I'll see it for maybe 7 seconds, then it switches to another image of my dog, or her ears anyway! Been happening maybe 2 months, and no matter what image I initially open, it switches to the dog pic?

doesn't happen Every time I open an image, but often enough. You have to click that Order Details image first

here's a video I put on dropbox

Yeah thanmks Gus but I'm afraid of doing these things myself, I'm pretty good at swinging a hammer, but not fixing computers!

I might just uninstall that NVid card, it was working very well without it.

No idea Gus, how do I find that?

Dell sent a tech out 2 weeks ago and they replaced that and the motherboard.

I did a dell scan and it shows a Warning for the card ..

what a damn hassle, I get a nice new computer, and have nothing but problems.

OK the only two acer drivers I can find are for-

Monitor Drivers and
Energy Efficiency Label

neither sound like a graphic card update?
