Rhino 8.9 Bug Report

I have been able to run only two commands so far.

  • Units
  • SystemInfo

After running those commands, it freezes and crashes.

Hi Devang,

Any particular reason you are running in .NET Framework 4.8.9256.0? (typically needed for specific plugins)

Does this happen if you run Rhino in safe mode?

Please disable the plugin via plugin manager for troubleshooting purposes.

Whenever I log an issue with Rhino 8, I get asked this question. We have to do it support plugins that don’t support .Net core yet.

Are you implying that running Rhino 8 under .Net framework will not have performance equivalent to running it under .Net core?

Nothing implied, i’m not aware of any differences in performance between the two. The question arises because it’s not the default and we are looking for anything atypical when troubleshooting.
