Texture Errors

Hi!

Chaos Vantage is awesome but not usable for me at the moment because of a weird texture bug.

I attached two images one from the default 3DS Max (V-Ray 5) rendering and one from Vantage. Maybe one of you knows what's the problem.

Would it be possible to attach the .max scene file ?
If I can take a look, I can tell you what's causing this issue.

I have the same issue, and I suspect UVW modifiers that are not collapsed to be the issue, but that is a wild guess, I was not yet able to dive into it.

Small update, on my side it does not matter if I collapse the uvw modifier or not. In my case I mixed up 2 textures...doh! (So I don't have this exact issue.)

What do you mean by "mixed up" - you made some mistake or you used the Mix texture ?
The Mix texture should be working.

Sorry, I literally mixed up a texture.

I've recently seen this issue with the 46x.xx set of GPU drivers.
They have some sort of bug in the compiler which messes our UVW calculations code.
This can result in these stretched textures.

We will most likely release a build with changes to our code that work around the nVidia driver bug.

We released update 1.0.2 which includes a workaround for some of the 46x.xx series driver issues. It will warn about "unsupported driver", but you could ignore the warning and see if it renders correctly.

This only applies if you guys were using the new drivers in the first place.
