PS It can be helpful to all of us users if you think you've found something significant (non-cosmetic) if you also make a post here with a subject like "AC 15 bug? description-of-bug".

Thanks Karl.

From what I'm seeing just three days into this it's pretty buggy...

Was wondering if others are experiencing longer re-draw in the 3d window than in ac14... seems like the shift to 64bit would make ac15 move through this faster. Migrated a test project over and so far working in the new program in 3d is slower than in version 14.

current slowness is in 3d placement of beams, processing runs about twice as long as when it was in ac14.

sad. maybe it's 10.6.8 being stupid, who knows... anyone else?

AC15 under OSX 10.6.8
2.8ghz i7 imac, 12gb ram
(should be screaming though this kind of stuff)

I have 14 models that run perfectly smooth in 14. When I take them to 15, I cannot even rotate around them.
I've have observed NO noticeable speed improvements from 64 bit whatsoever.

I will likely be going back to 14 as it is faster and more stable.

Interesting. I'm seeing faster performance in all cases.

Launch time for a small model is 27 seconds vs 31 seconds; open a 3D view is 3 seconds vs 5 seconds. 3D window completely fluid.

Maybe it is related to the amount of memory I have and/or that I installed a more powerful graphics card a few months ago. Just opened a variety of files and all open and act snappy.

Both of your machines have plenty of memory and should be flying. Strange.

don't worry, I have been running AC15 on win and mac running smoothly, take it out of the box and try it!

[rob2218]

OK...MasterScript from the Netherlands....I hope it works ok.
We are on a MAC. MAC Pro I think...it's the mac that has the single large screen and hard drive in the same unit.

Not sure how much RAM we have but AC14 runs well.
