PAR CORRUPT;<
Ian:
Alec has passed on a few of the PAR problems, an excellent summary. I felt
exactly as you did one night when my drive went haywire and I got crazy plaid
animations. Sometimes, when a drive is near full you can recover what may
appear to be a fried animation by deleting a few files and then doing an
optimize. About 85% full is about as far as I'll go with animations. Don't
hesitate to fill up the drive with .stl files as they have yet to cause any
problems. The worst disaster I had occured when I deleted a directory. Although
DPS says that this is fixed now I waited several PAR software versions before I
attempted this again. I still feel the PAR is a terrific product for the money
but learning its limitations firsthand can make your blood boil.
