Any Problems I can expect with 7.61 Beta?

Post by Kenc3 »

I finally got a copy of Truespace. It is 7.61 Beta. Are there any big problems I need to know about when using Windows Vista 32 Bit?
Took me three or four trys to get it.

Most problems should be addressed in trueBlue's unofficial patch which you can find here:

For the stand-alone (workspace only) version you can use this version of the unofficial patch:

Hope that helps!

Thank you.
Right now I am suffering from an information overload. It took three sets of binders to print out the manual from the Caligari site. Also took about 1000 sheets of paper (double sided printing) and two color ink cartridges to make the three volumes.
Now I am trying to get through the first tutorial. (They assume you are familiar with the terms and where things are.)
I know if I continue I will make it through this and be able to do something with it.
My goal is to make a mushroom house that can be entered through a door to one room inside. (I want to do some children's educational stuff.)
Thanks again. :)

Remember you are really working with two programs linked by a "bridge"
So in the early stages you might get discouraged and that is another reason we are all
here to help you. Which tutorial did you start with?

I am using the big manual that they have on Caligari.
The tutorial is the first one that begins with a cube and makes a spaceship.
I had to take a break for awhile as my eyes were giving me a bit of trouble. I am 69, retired and am on the coputer a lot.

You may find the Viperfish tutorial a quicker way to get started. Just be aware that there are some changes to UVs on primitives and editing/applying materials that will be different from the video in ch1.3.

I am starting the right now. I put the books aside and have downloaded some
of the videos. I am also downloading the .zip at the bottom so I will have them.
Thanks a lot.
