maya 3.0 wont run on my machine and alias says that it may be because of the hardware.
i have:
dell xps 333, 128 megs ram
diamond fire open gl video card
nt with service pack 5
not a powerhouse i know but it should all check out right?
Which diamond card do you have? The Fire GL 1 or the 1000?
Forget about it if it's a GL 1000, methinks.
We recieved Maya 3, and after getting an "Error." message in my script editor (the only part of the interface that would run) I was told by Alias very specifically by A|W that:
It will not run properly with our Oxygen VX1 right now.
3Dlabs is working on drivers, that a beta version is running nicely, but it hasn't gone public yet.
I had to go down to 16 bit colour to run it for the time being and wait for the driver to be released - other options being get a better (currently supported) card, or DL a specific older driver.
It affects me not as I'm only modeling for now. Basically, if your hardware (especially vid card) is not on the hardware compatibility list, they will not offer any advice but to get a certified system.
i have a VX-1 card and it runs good,but the same problem
i had with maya1 back in the old days(ha,ha)selectionHandels
do not look proper,and nor does the hypershade!!
download the newest drivers from 3dlabs and that should dothe trick.
