Hey everyone, we have a small update going out tonight at 6 PM PST. The update will provide fixes for the following issues that many of you have reported since our July update. <\/P>

 <\/P>

We are currently still working on a fix for an issue around Iris 6100 graphics card on Mac. We\u2019ll keep those who are affected posted on our progress. <\/P>

 <\/P>

Switching DirectX to DirectX 9 to solve crashes<\/STRONG><\/P>

 <\/P>

Some of you have reported graphics issues causing Fusion 360 to crash on the Windows side. If this update didn’t fix the crashes, here are a couple options you can try to mitigate this:

<\/P>

1. Once you update to the latest version of Fusion 360, if you are able to launch the product successfully, but experience crashes using the product, please go to Account name -> Preferences -> General -> Graphics driver -> select DirectX 9 from the dropdown list.<\/P>

 <\/P>

2. If option one doesn’t work, try manually editing the DirectX setting. <\/P>

 <\/P>

You need to edit the file %APPDATA%AutodeskNeutron PlatformOptionsNMachineSpecificOptions.xml<\/P>

 <\/P>

The line below needs to be added to the \u2018BootstrapOptionsGroup\u2019 block in the XML file.<\/P>

    <driverOptionId ToolTip=”The driver used to display the graphics” UserName=”Graphics driver” Value=”VirtualDeviceDx9″\/><\/STRONG><\/P>

 <\/P>

If this line already exists with the value \u2018VirtualDirectDx11\u2019 then the user should edit the value rather than adding another line.<\/P>

 <\/P>

Example content before the change :<\/EM><\/STRONG>

<\/P>

  <BootstrapOptionsGroup SchemaVersion=”2″ ToolTip=”Special preferences that require the application to be restarted after a change.” UserName=”Bootstrap”>   <\/P>
