Thanks Frank -- I've used my own 2d & 3d vector classes for years,
but the unfortunate fact is that I've also used Vector3D out of
convenience in dozens of projects which will now no longer compile
due to Rb suddenly changing the rules.

It's pretty easy to roll your own vector classes but for what it's
worth I've got opensource standalone 3D math classes available on
my site: <http://developer.chaoticbox.com/realbasic_classes.php>
In a lot of cases they're faster than the built-in stuff, since
Vector3D/Quaternion properties are accessor methods (that call into
the RB3D plugin).

Another problem is that the Vector3D class is now tied to Quesa: Any
project that uses Vector3D (and there are a million and one reason
why you'd want to use Vector3D for non-Rb3D projects) will crash if
Quesa is not installed. All the more irritating because the Vector3D
does not share the namespace with any of the Rb3D classes.
Vector3D has always been part of the Rb3D plugin, but you're right, it
used to work fine without Quesa. I bet this is related to the issues
Frank has been seeing; something has changed with how and when Quesa is
being initialized.
I'll try to file a bug report on this one this weekend.
Please let us know when you have, so we can sign on.

Don't leap to conclusions. I wasn't the only one at RS that was into
3D -- indeed, David Grogono had at least as many 3D projects as I did,
and certainly has more now (I don't have much time for that sort of
thing anymore, alas). He's already stated that his projects work fine,
and has asked for help pinning down what the difference is. Bugs
happen -- let's work with them to get them ironed out.
Best,
