Any idea why this might be happening?

Hi Dave,

That is a really old version of LPub.
I can imagine that you are using it for a reason, like you want to render with
POV, but if that is not the case, I suggest you update LPub to version 4.0.0.11.

It renders using LDView or LDGLite and does the job quicker and WYSIWYG.

For more information cosult the Official Online LPub manual here:

Okay, I've downloaded the newest edition, and confess that I'm frustrated
because it loses some of the basic functionality of the earlier version, and
it's completely hobbled by errors that the older versions were able to
accommodate without even blinking.

LPub version 4.0.0.11 is brought to a standstill by the following:
===================
Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\LDView\LDView.exe

R6025
-pure virtual function call
===================

This popped up from a DAT file that rendered just fine on version 2.4.8.0 not
one minute before.

From a programming standpoint, what's the thinking behind making a newer version
*less* resilient than its predecessors?

For that matter, what the heck does that error message mean?

(...) Perhaps you should report this error in the LDraw forums. I'm not sure Travis still checks here (noting the source of the error). Tim (13 years ago, 22-Mar-12, to lugnet.cad)
