    Default 3D DWF does not show

    I have installed Design Review on a colleagues computer (3GHz laptop, XP Pro, 1Gb RAM), it seems to have installed OK and views 2D DWFs fine, but as soon as I try and view a 3D DWF, it kicks up an error ("Problem with DWF file") and shows nothing. I can see the DWF in my old Composer (v.2.0.0.200) no problem.

    Does anyone have any idea what is going on here?

    Hi

    Is it possible to post the actual 3D DWF file so we may take a look...

    Have a good one, Mike

    Sorry, but the testfile is too large to upload. It is true for all the 3D DWF's we have tried, they are all over 2Mb though. 2D DWF's, of any size, view fine.

    Hi

    Can you not place it in a ZIP file, then upload?

    ZIP files have a 15 MB size limit here on the forums.

    That's not what the upload manager says:

    File Too Large. Exceeds PHP's limit of 2.00 MB
    and that was for the zipped DWF.

    Hi

    Hmmm, very strange... as that should not be the case.

    Example - take a look at the ZIP file attached to THIS post (14.64 MB).

    Let me go away and look into it. I will post back, once I have identified the cause of the problem and hopefully fixed it.

    Have a good one, Mike

    I was able to reproduce the problem with our Nile (Autodesk Design Review 200 beta. I have logged a defect and included your file. Thanks for this test case.
