Dear Jonas: We have 4 re-occuring problems rendering on our pentium machines: 1. Bad MTL Num in Do_smooth 2. Pentiums continually hang in transforming objects. (Escape almost always is responded to, but no error message is given as to why the project didn't render. 3. Flic files almost always render corrupted when the machines do decide to finish rendering. 4. Pentiums continually hang when counting colors with any palatte setting. These problems do not happen on any of our 486 machines. I've tried re-installing 3D Studio version 3 and version 4 from the original disks several times with no effect. These problems happen whether I send the projects over from the network to the pentium slave _or_ try rendering stand alone on the pentiums. Also I've taken out _all_ drivers in the pentiums with the exception of the mouse driver. I ran Norton utilities ver 8.0 on the machines which show no hardware conflicts. All other tasks appear to be fine other than the ones listed above. The machines are configured as follows: Duel Pentium 100 MHz w/ 1. Processor chip installed. 64 MB Parity Ram, 512K Cache MS Dos 6.22 w/ Novell Netware Lite ver. 1.1 Number 9 Vision 330 PCI w/ 2MB Dram Adaptec 1742 SCSI Controller Quantum SCSI 4.2 GIG Hard Drive CNET CN650E (Novell 2000 Compatible) Network Card Microsoft Mouse and Driver Novell Netware Lite ver. 1.1 (Updated 8-10-95) That's it. Nothing else is in the machines other that 3D Studio and we've tried all the latest versions. Both machines are exactly the same, and were built by me. Please help us if you can. We've got things to render and deadlines are getting closer by the minute. 🙂 …Earl
