Forum activation - GRUMP - 11-08-2021

It works.
Despite having read the post highlighted in red I kept trying the contact button which does nothing, I could not make contact with anyone until I did actually sent an email then voila at last I can make a post.
It is down to my ignorance that I waited so long.

I am here due to trying to post on the Wings3D Facebook pages which all seem to be broken. Micheus found by chance my post and recommended me here.

Having browsed the forum I don't see a suitable section for my queries of trying to get help in following some of the outdated tutorials in the youtube channel.
I don't want to clog the forum with inappropriate posts and silly newbie questions so have started a new facebook group in the hope of attracting some experienced users that don't mind having their brains picked, please come along and give the benefit of your knowledge.

I am a retired computer engineer riddled with arthritis and use a joystick mouse with both hands so progress is slow for me.

I have my own version of Linux based on Debian Dog and further reduced for my needs which all packs on to a 2G sd card and boots in all of my devices as a live system with cloud storage, a copy of which is available on my shared drive should you wish to try it.

I am currently running the latest version of Wings3D build 2.2.7 on it and it works extremely well.
There are no instructions with it as I have written it for my own use but I would be happy to answer any questions that you may have.

Thank you for the invitation to join and the activation to post I hope to be a usefull member of the community.

Hi GRUMP.

I don't think it's broken. I saw your post because you made it in the public space in that fanpage.
Fonte Boa, who owns it, created a private group which you need to hit a button to be approved. Just access the fanpage and scroll left the top menu until you find the Groups option.

I wish you look.
The Wings3D community is very small (compared to any other) and it's hard to get then engaged. I already found another two older ones at facebook - all dead. Sad


Anyway...

Your questions about them can be done/put in the Interface & Usage section since they probably are related to Wings3D functionalities. Smile

"Just access the fanpage and scroll left the top menu until you find the Groups option."

So private there is no join option and the work group is not responding to my request to rejoin although I wasn't aware that I had ever left, hence the new group. One can but try.

No problem.
Just be aware that since the notification system is down I use to check the forum only once or twice a day. So, you may get your answer in the next day. Smile
