re-installing it.. and yes the dll was checked
this time when I started it another window opened as well (before it crashed)and it had writing in it..
Erlang R14B01 (erts-5.8.2) [rq:1] [async-threads:0]
Eshell V5.8.2 (abort with ^G)
1> Trying OpenGL modes
[{buffer_size,32},{depth_size,32},{stencil_size,8},{accum_size,16}]
and it was while looking at this that the program crashed...

I notice you tried to install the version 1.4.1. The window content for this window would be like that:
Code:
Erlang R14B01 (erts-5.8.2) [rq:1] [async-threads:0]
Eshell V5.8.2 (abort with ^G)
1> wings-1.4.1
Reading preferences from: c:/Users/Micheus/AppData/Roaming/Wings3D/Preferences.txt
Trying OpenGL modes
[{buffer_size,32},{depth_size,32},{stencil_size,8},{accum_size,16}]
Actual: RGBA: 8 8 8 0 Depth: 24 Stencil: 8 Accum: 16 16 16 16
Using GPU shaders.Is there any chance you try the wings-1.4.1.137.g5ee2.exe? It has some bug fixes.
Also, did you checked if are you using the latest graphic card drivers? (Information on AMD Mobility Radeon™ Graphics Drivers for Microsoft® Windows®)

I'm having the exact same issue right down to the read out in the erlang window. The work space window never opens. I have a windows 7 64 bit with an I7 870X CPU and a GTX 670 GPU. I've tried various versions of wings and they all do the same thing as 141
EDIT: OK, I got it to work YAY!!!! I use skins on my windows OS, I normally disable the skinning of my graphic programs as this can cause glitches for some of them. I had disabled the skinning of Wings 3d .exe, but not werl.exe. Once adding werl.exe to the per application list of windowblinds(skinning software) It worked fine

shayna_lynn,
Welcome to Wings3D. Glad you got it working on your system. Also, thanks for sharing your solution. Interesting that skinning software caused the problem. I hope it helps others...

Justanother ... come to ManifoldLab section. Repost your request.
Yes ... I can get that for you Just another. Or you can go all power-user on my and "TRY" the experimental.tar file and see if it fits you needs. I know that distro has a few items broken for reasons yet TBD. Shape extruder does not seem to like 64 bit context, and I have yet to figure that out ... but I will figure it out soon.

So far I've had it over 2 million quads. It doesn't crash but after about a million it does get slow! .... Of course I'm on a laptop with only 8G of ram .. but as far as I can tell, It's using both cores and having a much better time on my system than the 32-bit one!! .. Woo hoo, thanks again!! .. this brings up another question though ...... New Post .....
