is there any update on this? Seems like there would be a lot of crossover between Indie users and Godot users...

i actually only haven't tried Godot because i couldn't use Houdini with it. and it's a bit of a bummer because Unreal Editor is a bit much for my computer.

So, like, i figured out what circumstances cause a crash (and why it usually happnes right after launch)

Basically, each of my monitors is connected to a different GPU (and i don't think i can change that). So if Houdini spends more than about 30 seconds with one window on one monitor and one window on the other one, it goes down.

If i open it, sometimes the little startup window will open on a different monitor than the main window. that's when it crashes. Same thing with the help card. I would normally move it over to the other monitor, and in about 20 seconds, it goes down..

Again, it's the same thing if i tear off a window from the main window and move it over to the other monitor.

So, i reckon i should make bug report?

i will try it without the eGPU. i feel like it's possible that it only happens when it's plugged in...

but yes, it meets the minimum requirements. One thing that is sketchy, RAM is only 16GB (and it's soldered in)... and my SSD is slow and has no DRAM... and the iGPU is allocated 2 GB... windows seems to be using 60GB page file... i wonder if it's due to page faults, some how?

i ordered a good SSD today, so maybe that will help?

It seems like it's probably time to get a better computer. (one with 96 GB of ram, i guess, heh)
