I have a model which has the potential to hang Blender. The hang occurs when I have both a 3D view and the UV view open at the same time. Then, in the 3D view, I go into Edit Mode. Once this happens, my CPU will go to 100% and never seems to come back. This issue happens in both Blender 2.49 and 2.5a2.
As for my specs, I'm running on a dual-core desktop, 3GB ram, with a Radeon X1550 video card. I've been working with this model for some time in Blender without problems. But, after I joined all the meshes into a single mesh did I encounter this issue of Blender hanging. I've debugged this and it appears that the draw_uvs() method in uvedit_draw.c is responsible. Looking at the code, it doesn't appear to use very efficient OpenGL calls. It's following this pattern: for (large set of faces) { glBegin() glVertex2fv(v1) glVertex2fv(v2) glVertex2fv(v3) glEnd() } For a sense of the mesh size, the EditMesh struct used in the iteration of this method has totfaces set to 20,160. Does anyone know why this method doesn't use VBOs or Vertex Arrays? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
