hello. Has anybody out there had any luck with any of the geforce 4 (in particular the Ti 4600) cards with Maya?
We’ve just put together a dual Xeon system with this card and are experiencing some weirdness and crashing. If you’ve got a similar configuration or know of one without any issues, please let me know.
Thanks,
Sam
sorry, Geforces don’t have overlay planes or hardware buffers. Other cards like quaddro etc do. That would explain any wierd flickering when you use the Artisan and PaintFX tools.
I use to run a Geforce256 then I hacked it into a quaddro and WoW! what a difference - never had trouble since, but you can’t do that with a Geforce4 (but you can with a 3)
Artisan in Maya 4 no longer has dependance on overlay planes, but I imagine that other aspects of the software (image planes, Paint FX) still do.
I know someone that has Maya running on a geforce 4, and is not having these problems…but I don’t think he’s tried the above mentioned parts of the program yet.
Ensure that multiple desktops is not on; but you can use multiple monitors.
