Any update for the El Capitan crashes on a Mac yet?

oh I like what I see!

luckyXIII: oh I really hope so. I've been running on parallels and it's not nearly as stable.

anywhereexcepthere: FIRE-16821 is still unresolved. The new comments being left so far today are mixed. One person is still crashing. Another isn't crashing but has slower

performance. Best way to keep track of the issue is to watch that JIRA. There is actually at least one workaround in the comments that has worked for some people.

The issue on the whole is very inconsistent. It only affects El Capitan+NVidia graphics, but it's not all El Capitan+NVidia graphics. And you can't know if you're one of them without trying.

And that might be the case for the update; some who had the issue on the previous release might be fine on this one, as the comments suggest.

I'm usin' it on a Mac with El Capitan and NVIDIA, ain't crashed yet (in th'last ten minutes or so).

ToriLok: Me either! My last update was when I was forced to because of the mesh. So, was that like 2 or 3 updates?

Anyone having issues installing it? The C++ redists appear to be breaking the install.

It's trying to install older versions, and when it cant, it exits the setup.

LettePonnier: it's definitely not isolated to nvidia graphics as I have a newer model Mac Pro, and that runs on ATI

I have the problem on the Mac Pro and well as a MBP, neither run nvidia

Sorry AMD* not ATI

anywhereexcepthere: You're sure it's the same issue and not a crash related to something else? For this particular issue, the crash is actually in the NVidia GEForce Driver.

If you know this to be the same crash, can you add your crash logs to the JIRA posted above? It would be important for the devs to know it is not NVidia-exclusive if it's to get fixed for all affected cards.

And if you don't know for sure, it would be useful to file a separate JIRA with crash logs. Someone can look at the crash logs to see what the root cause might be. If you're waiting for a fix for a crash other

than the one you have, you might be waiting a long time.

DarnellJohnson: I had that same problem with my older laptop, but with persistence, and TOTALLY cleaning out all older Firestorm debris, I was eventually able to install an older version

re-install, that is, after the update wouldn't work

DarnellJohnson: If you need help with that, ask in one of our inworld groups: getting_help [Phoenix Firestorm Project - Wiki] ... or file a JIRA if you don't have another way to log in right now.

LettePonnier: I'll do that thanks!

love the new build options

and thanks to a previous great video provided by you guys, I did a clean install and saved my settings, worked perfect

there a way to turn off Destinations/Upcoming Events/What's Hot Now on the login screen?

not that i'm aware of

Yikes. OK, thank you.

i believe it is possible to bypass the login screen entirely by using login scripts at the operating system level, but I don't know how to do it, and it's not something the team supports.

It must've just been a glitch - I couldn't minimize any of them, today everything is fine. Thank you, though!
