Hi. I'm on Windows XP and PARIS was working fine until just a couple or so
months ago. Now when it starts up (or even if you just start a new project
when already in PARIS) it takes several minutes. The splash screen and the
start-up bits when you see the splash screen are fine. It's after the splash
screen finishes, and just as the Project window comes up; at that time, the
Project window just sits there, half-displaying (i.e., not all graphics show,
just a couple menu options and a blank window) for several minutes. Then
finally it comes up fine. I have tried disabling all plugins, that has had
no effect. The hardware seems all to be fine. Once up, PARIS works just
fine, no other anomalies. Any ideas? Thanks much.

Wilson,


Temporarily rename your default project and startup without one. Might
be something in it has been "pooched".

Hi,
I suspect you have installed many plugins so Paris needs time to read all
them...
See if when Paris hangs if it says DX plugins/vst whatesoever...

Not really the same problem, but I have noticed on my XP system, that if
I start the comp up anb go do something else for 10 minutes or so then try
to open Paris, Paris starts its thing then crashes at the end. and then I
have to restart the comp
but if I start my comp and start Paris almost right away, no problems.

Strange.

I run Paris on a Mac, so this may not be helpful, but I found that Paris was
taking forever - I mean FOREVER! like 6 to 7 minutes! - to load the Waves
plugins. Then one day I optimized my boot drive and Paris now boots in about
a minute.

No, as said it is past the splash screen, so not in the loading phase. Please
note also that I disabled all plugins and it still does that, so I think
that would rule out that it's the plugins.

It's slow even if I open a regular project that predated the problem, in which
case I would think the default project wouldn't be touched? Anyway, I did
try it, I appreciate the idea, but it didn't fix it.

When you say "optimize", do you know if that's similar to defragmenting on
Windows? Anyway, that's definitely a good idea (to defrag, at least), so
I'm trying that as I type this, will post results.

Yes - Optimize and Defrag are the same, I think. Most folks say DON'T defrag
audio drives but DO defrag system drives every now and then.

If you wanna forget all these problems try these two things one at a time.
First of all COPY your entire Paris emu folder in c:\ root with a simple
name like Paris.
Start your Paris exe with a shortcut from the new directory.
You don't have to delete the old one.
Just make sure you are opening the Paris from within the c: root directory.

Secondly DISABLE Directx !!
What a relief, no crash for months.
For DX support just put your FFX4 free chainer wrapper in your vst direcory
and thats it.
Regards,
Dimitrios

Just FYI I have tried these on my system for my problem, no change. I realize
you are addressing Cujo, just saying for the record. Appreciate the input/info.

Thanks. It's running, just takes a long time of course. Will report back.

Nope, the defrag did not make any difference. Thanks for the idea. Still
takes 5-6 minutes to load.

Pull up task manager before launching Paris, see if there is any foolishness
going on with RAM or CPU, and look at what process/app is causing it. Might
be some clues there man.

Have you tried a zip/rar backup of the whole Paris map, then uninstall Paris
and everything in that map, close down the computer and start it again and
start up a new Parisinstallation to see how the new one workes when
restarted? If you need some files from the old installation, just import it
one and one from the zip/rar archive and test what's happening. That way, I
think you can eliminate if it's a problem with the Paris software.
