Solved: Re: Graphicsconfig locks up C3D

Anonymous · ‎11-21-2019

I'm running both C3D 2018 and 2019. C3D locks up when I try to turn hardware accelerator off or on. It will lock up through the options command and graphicsconfig command.

Is there any other options to turn off/on hardware accelerator?

You might want to see if the Graphic Card Drivers need to be updated.

You can find a list of Icon Switches here:

Try -graphicsconfig (note the hyphen). See if it will work from the command line.

Could the dialog be coming up offscreen?
