  • Live Link doesn't work

    I can't send scene to Vantage through the Live Link. In all cases nothing happend. There is no issue when sending vrayscenes.
    Here is the log

    Are the ports the same in Vantage and 3ds Max ?
    What's the "status" of the live link, i.e. what does the last row of the "Live Link" menu say ?

    Also note that you have to be running V-Ray 5 in order to use the live link.
    V-Ray Next is incompatible and Vantage won't connect to it.

      I assume you are following the instructions here: https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/LAV/Live+Link

      There may be relevant information (warnings) above the error in your screenshot, like this:

      Is Vantage listening on the same port?

        What do You mean "are the ports the same in Vantage and 3ds Max"
        And other words - how to check the ports for 3ds max?

          When you specify a DR server, you also specify the port to establish the connection on.
          Vantage is a type of DR server.
          If you are using the 3ds Max scripts for the live link that come with Vantage, the port is 20701, so it is matching.

                Could you check if your firewall allows connections? Also, could you screenshot all the messages in the 3ds Max messages window? Your initial screenshot was only 3 lines and there may be relevant info above them.

                  Hi katana_poland

                  In addition to what Nikola said, can you please check what is written in the "IP address" column in the V-Ray GPU DR settings dialogue when you click on "Resolve"?

                  Best regards,
                  Alexander

                    Hi Alexander and Nikola
                    Thank You for quick reply!
                    The problem was resolved. I don't quite sure what was the issue but I had to reinstall system and it helped.
