Backplot Problem

[ce@mastertool]

Hi, Folks

 

I'm having the rewind and flicker problem that others have had. I have disabled unified back/depth buffer setting in Backplot C Hook.

Also disabled hardware acceleration in Screen Configuration.Problem has remained.

 

X SP1 10.0.14.19

NVIDIA GeForce2 MX 100

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

Could be the MX chip causing your flicker problem. They aren't the best. Our "computer guy" went against our recommendation and got us one.

 

We still suffer from the rewind and repeat problem, as do others.

Thanks Thad,

 

Our local reseller, recomended this graphics card.

Previous versions it worked great. I hope maintenance update fixes this problem. I really miss backlot.

This list used to have more info in it and I believe it specifically advised against the MX chip. That's not to say that it *won't* work though. You've already has some success with that card. Anyway, what's done is done.

 

Maybe holding down the S key when backplotting will work for you? Just make sure your mouse is in the grahics window or turn your speakers down.

I don't use the step key. I get by back ploting. individual tools. Hassle! I do this when I really need good verification. I've been relying on verify.

Anybody,

 

I hoped to get a little more feed back. The original X worked fine. Somewhere Backplot must have got lost after the updates.

 

I had high hopes monday morning after reading another thread or two on the same subject. Most appeared to find an answer to they're problems.I tried the suggestions offered to no avail.

 

Was I left behind in an update to help the masses?

 

Hello,

 

CNC?

 

Anybody?

 

Does this thing work?

I don't know if this is a help to you or not but I submitted a couple of files that were causing skipping and repeating over and over again. I receieved and email from CNC a couple a days ago that the problem appears to be fixed in MR1.

Thank You John,

 

I had seen a previous reply in the ealier thread, That you were author of. I was unclear if your problem was resolved. But as threads tend to end. Sometimes it is hard to tell. I also noted that others found an answer.

 

I did also reread that thread and found someone that has downloaded current drivers. This I will try also.

 

Let's hope mr1 is the answer

 

Thanks for your reply.
