Applying 3D effects crashes Ai, with errors from Geometry3D module
These constant bugs in every update are really infuriating.
When applying 3D effects (e.g., extrude or inflate), Illustrator 2025 v29.6.1 on macOS 14.5 (M4 Pro, 24GB RAM) crashes immediately.
Crash report shows repeated errors from Geometry3D module and abort() called in main thread.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a shape (e.g., rectangle or text)
2. Apply 3D > Extrude or Inflate
3. Sometimes applying materials also causes crash
4. Illustrator immediately crashes without saving
macOS Version: macOS Sonoma 14.5
Illustrator Version: 29.6.1
Chip: M4 Pro
RAM: 24GB
Crash module: Geometry3D
