Anyone had problems with Vray and FR-1?

[Ramsay]

Does anyone have these 2 programs set up on a network of slaves? I am having problems getting Vray to use DR now that I have installed Stage-1

[vlado]

Hmm. I'll try that here and see if there are any problems.

Best regards,

Vlado! . . . did you buy FR 1 ?

If you want to keep your product competitive, you HAVE to have at least a copy of your competition. This way, when comparing, you find your strong points, and more important, your weakpoints of your software.

Be damn sure that the ppl behind fR and Brazil also have a copy of Vray !!

maybe the brazil people. but somehow the fR people seem to have an ego that might not alow it

I had vray and FinalRender Stage-0 installed on Max-4.2 with no problems.
Then I upgraded to MAX-5.1 and installed my upgrade to Stage-1.

For a while after that I had some wierd things happening, but I couldn't work out what it was. Strange light patterns, unexpected results in material editor, some renders too dark, others too light. And no FR materials or lights were in use.

I completely uninstalled FR Stage-1 and then re-intalled and everything seems to be back in order.

Stage-1 is crashing all the time.

Had no issues with DR yet but many crashes.
Don´t know how others think about it but it´s unusable for production i think.

You are wrong.
Edwin mentioned that he has a V-Rray copy, imho it was on the Discreet board.

Yes, Cebas have VRay. It would be stupid of them not to.

Vlado did you find any problems with this?
