- Wings3d failing to start or Preferences file being reset:
If you have problem with Wings3d failing to start that can be caused by a directory name using non standard ASCII characters.
In the same way, you also can experience the Preferences file being reset. The problem is related to how it is stored in the preferences file (reading it causes the error).
It's probably the support to Unicode should be added to preferences file in the next release.
By now, avoiding to use non ASCII charset for the names will help with this issue. Take a look at the post #10 - the last portion where I show how to redirect the preferences path. You can add those parameters to your shortcut in Windows.
