I'm glad it actually worked...:w00t: Thanks for reporting back!

Thank you very much for the help folks. The run as administrator trick did the job. My appreciation for the iclone community grows every day.

Go to control panel, user accounts, change user control settings, (windows 7) turn slider to bottom.

Vista, Check the box to turn off :P

In the meantime a vid, using duchess110 ballroom dancing and firework display, back in Iclone 1.5 or 2006 :)








It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society

This is just a guess, but it might be a permissions issue for which Vista is notorious. Try running iClone as administrator. To do that, right-click the link or desktop icon you use to start the program and select Run as Administrator. Then try to change your editor in iClone and see if it holds.

mikemarkca,

As of my original post, I've changed from Vista to Windows 7, reinstalled iClonePro and upgraded to iClonePro 4.2.  With this I was able to change the texture editor and it did not revert back to the original exe program.

By the way, welcome to the forum.

As a writer your going to be very popular here Lurch, or whatever we call you. :D

Thank you Gizmo for the warm welcome. I could be the Lurer at the Threshold, I think that's one of HP Lovecraft stories. I am a writer by trade and just starting to explore the possibilities of 3D animation and find some of the technical elements daunting although IClone is much more accessible than some other programs, everytime I open my Poser 8 trial my brain hurts.

I love the potential of this software and am eager to translate some of my scripts into reality and rescue them from film/television development and option limbo. To start I have to get a handle on this technology, a bit of a curve, that last animation I did was paper cut out and claymation with a super8 camera decades ago lol.

Hi mikemarkca. Sorry, I've not got an answer to your question but I just thought you ought to have a welcome onto the Forum. Have fun.

By the way . . . I also think you ought to change your name to 'lurker'. I love that.

:cool: gizmo

Good day, everyone, first post, you never hear from any lurkers until they have a problem. Has there been an easy solution to this situation uncovered? I am trying to change my texture editor in the preferences but every time it reverts to the old exe program. Much thanks if anyone can help

 

Thanks zuijlen for the information.  I found these entries.  Even after deleting the entries for version 3 and changing the entry for the ICAMLEditor to notepad, for so some strange reason, the entry reverts back to gimp.exe.  Very strange indeed.  But as I mentioned earlier, the ImageEditor is more important to me (at this point) then the AMLEditor.
