We truly appreciate all feedback, ideas and bug reports.

For those willing to go the extra mile, you can now join our bug bounty program: if you can find a bug in the latest available version of 3DF Zephyr (Free,Lite,Pro or Aerial) and successfully tell us how to replicate it 100% of the time, you can win life-changing prizes such as t-shirt or mugs!

Submissions of bug bounties must be done using our ticketing system at the URL http://support.3dflow.net/support/tickets/new

Frequently asked questions

Q: I found a bug but i have no idea how to reproduce it. Did I win something?
A: Unfortunately no, sorry! You must send a report on what the bug does and – most importantly – how to systematically be able to reproduce the bug.

Q: I found a bug in an older 3DF Zephyr version. Did I win something?
A: If the bug is still present in the most recent version available for download and you have provided us steps on how to reproduce it (and they still work in the current version) then sure!

Q: I found a bug in the beta edition of 3DF Zephyr / I found a bug not specified in the open bounties. Did I win something?
A: Good bug hunters (that constantly and continously help us) may get special prizes even if the bugs found are not listed in the open bounties.

Q: I found a bug that i can 100% replicate but only on my machine. Did I win something?
A: If we can setup a remote desktop session to investigate, then yes 🙂

Closed bounties

  • BUG BOUNTY #001 – Gizmo shenanigans
Prize: “I helped 3Dflow bugfixing 3DF Zephyr and all I got was this lousy T-shirt!” T-Shirt

Affected versions: 3DF Zephyr Free/Lite/Pro/Aerial. Most likely since 3.702 onwards.

Bug occurrency: very rare

Description:

This bug has been squashed on 23.11.18!

there should be a way to make Zephyr crash when opening the gizmo. From the dump reports, it looks like there is a way to open two gizmos – which would then cause 3DF Zephyr to crash.

Maybe you can open a gizmo while the processing is still running or closing the gizmo in some unexpected way that can leave the gizmo open in the workspace? We have no idea! Help us find a way to reproduce this very rare bug to win the bragging rights of being the first one to crack the Bug Bounty #001.
