Cool VL Viewer forum

I don't see mesh when I'm using Cool VL Viewer 1.26.4. 1.26.2 and 1.26.3 show mesh fine. My video card is a GeForce GTX570. I've tried 1.26.4 on another computer with a different video card and it works fine. Has anyone else had this problem and found a fix?

There is no difference in mesh rendering between v1.26.4 and v1.26.2, so you should see no difference at all.

Instead, check your settings (and especially, make sure that hardware skinning is enabled, else rigged meshes can't be rendered).

Thanks for the reply Henri. Hardware skinning was enabled, so I removed all versions and setups and reinstalled 1.26.4. Works now, so something must have been corrupt.

I spoke too soon. It's still not rendering mesh. I wonder if it's a GTX570 thing

Again there is absolutely no difference between v1.26.2's and v1.26.4's renderer... If it renders in one, it must render just the same in the other...

I believe you, but for some reason they weren't. Anyways, I logged into an all mesh sim on second life with both 1.26.4 and 1.26.2 and neither would render. I rolled the NVIDIA driver back to ver 8.17.12.7533 5/20/11 and everthing is working. The latest and greatest isn't necessarily the greatest

The reason is perhaps that you updated your driver between the last use of v1.26.2 (and therefore it was working in it) and the time you noticed it didn't work in v1.26.4 any more...

Isn't it exactly what I told you ?... Twice ?...

If it's not broken, don't "fix" it !... As long as your drivers are working fine, it's not worth updating (and whenever I update, I always keep the old drivers at hand, just in case).
