>> Did you add any RAM since installing the program? << Hi Bill: Sorry to hear about the 4 hr work, then crash! (Just remember to SAVE as you go, for next time!!) And! If the program starts working more slowly… watch out… I have 16 mg of ram, and 2mg Vram… I increased my disk space last night, and one thing, we did clear our C drive to make more room too… Window applications just eat up space so we decided to make more room available. One thing I have decided is that the more complicated the object is, then the more it takes memory.. so I need to be more careful as I proceed.. (I'm a game player, I've learned over the years to save from time to time… ha ha… hate dying!) >> Is there a way to use the same textures on more than one object? << Yes, All you have to do is either pull the object icon into the edit well, or use your right mouse button and hit "Edit" Then you can change your material as you wish. I don't find that it takes too much memory to have several different materials, but in a big project, it might make a difference. I like to keep adding different materials to my objects… and changing the Opacity of the object, just to see what the image looks like with the change. Hope this helps…
