I have gotten an error message that pops up every now and then that says ERROR:CHOICE COUNT 415. It has an OK button but when ever I hit OK the number keeps growing. Finnaly I have to restart my machine. Has anyone had this problem before and knows what causes this. My machine is a AT&T Pentium, with 64 meg of ram and a 500 meg hard drive. Please help Gregg Daly Graphix Zone

<< choice:count error >> Is this from within 3ds3? jonas[adesk]

I had that error message come up last year, when I first installed 3DS. I went on a major memory conflict hunt, and haven't seen the message since, although that could be a coincidence. John Tissavary (LUNA cie)

I cannot find this error. There are some messages which have the word CHOICE in them, but nothing I can see that says CHOICE count. Could you be more specific about how you encounter this? Are you running 3DS3? Have you loaded a file? Which module are you in? Can you duplicate the experience on purpose? Etc. Thanks. Nik

I am running ver. 3. It happens maily when I am in the keyframer. Corection on the error message, it says "ERROR:CHOICE 415" Gregg Daly

"ERROR:CHOICE 415" Sounds like a 3D Studio error, but I don't know the reason it would occur. Perhaps Gary would care to comment. You say it happens in the keyframer. Are you able to do something specific to bring this error up? Or is it something like mouse movements will bring it up? Nik

It sounds like a corrupted 3ds.res file. Try reinstalling it from the original disks. – G
