busted texture browser

Post by buhatkj »

is anyone else having the problem that the texture browser thingy doesnt show the little thumbnails of the textures like it's supposed to?? I have no idea which is the currently selected texture, so the texturing functions are almost totally useless to me right now. All my PC's this is the case....what's up with this?

That's strange, some people already reported this. Doesn't happen to me, but I'll try to find the cause. What OS are you using?

Since I jumped to Vista, it happens to me too. I was working with XP before and had no problem :D

wierd...it works on my work machine now, but my vista box is still busted i think maybe my copy at work had the wrong path set in my autostart script, but im not sure what's up with my vista machine...
maybe its just yet another vista bug; some problem with wxwidgets in vista, *shrug*

Sounds like some really bad driver for me. I'll integrate that feature into the next irrlicht engine version, and I guess we can find a solution for this problem more quickly then.

I think so Niko, I am using a Nvidia Geforce video card and seems that -from Nvidia's site - the actual drivers are not quite 100% Vista effective. I get problems with other games, plus my 256MB video card is considered as 64MB by my system detector :?
I will try the BETA drivers, and give you news.
