    More to add... on the newer computer, fusion crashes often but I can open the file if I specifically open fusion, then use the "open" command.  The file pops up.  Not sure if this helps identify the problem.

    Hallo Same problems here (mac IOS 10.8.2) 

     

    I was wondering if Autodesk can give an indication when this issue can be solved. Or are there maybe some tricks to open the file via another way? This because I like to continue on my work. I would like to keep doing this in Fusion rather then starting over again in another program.

    I have been working with one of the developers for the past few months. He confirmed to me in a recent email that the issue is based around Mutli Threading and seems to affect certain hardware/OS combinations, and that they are working on a fix:

    "Yes, we have seen couple of MT issues while processing the graphics scenes(on particular hardware and OS combinations) while opening some files. And we are working on it now. So probably you will get this fix in our next release."

    The only workaround I have found is to use Inventor on older Hardware or an earlier OS (Lion seems unaffected). It is less than ideal to lug around another MBP just for this, but it is cheaper than a commercial license for autodesk Fusion :smileywink:

    Hi Chris,

     
    You say the best thing is to wait for the next update. Can you tell me to when this update will be released. Also I understand that the issue is based around Mutli Threading, will this mean that I can try to eliminate some other background programs that interference with each-other? 
     
    I hope i can continue working with Fusion soon because I really like the usability of this design program!

    I download the .zip file but fail to unzip it and just copy the .f3d file out. So would you please attach the .f3d file directly or email it to LiangDOTLiu@autodeskDOTcom. I'll take a look then.

     

    For the DWG open issue, please make sure there's 3D Solid/Surface data in DWG.

     

    Thanks,

    I am having the same unexpected quits during simple extrusions.  I'm running Fusion on a 16GB 2.6Ghz MBP retina.  I had used fusion with very complex assemblies on an old 13 MBP with no issues.  With the new retina, I am able to perform one extrusion and once i begin a revolve command or extrude cut, the program will crash.  This happens whether I save or don't save the part and happens to all fietypes.

     

    I checked to see if this was related to the retina's graphics switching or screen scaling, but changing either of these variables doesn't seem to affect the program stability.  I'm hopeful that an update is on the horizion.
