Vray7 scene converter crash

[tehamnes]

Hard crashes 3dsmax every time I try to convert a scene with objects imported (linked) from fbx file or from Revit. Same happens if I bind the files. What could be the reason?

Best you send the files so we can try to reproduce the crash. Also, include the "3dsmax_minidump.dmp" file (located in the Windows %temp% folder), generated after the crash.

I'm also getting this every time I try the converter, after updating to V-Ray 7. Considering going back to previous build.

As per my last post, send the file in question and the .dump file so we can troubleshoot.

Thank you.

Thanks for the provided scene. First of all, the V-Ray converter cannot directly convert Autodesk materials (Hardwood, Ceramic, Generic, etc.) to V-Ray ones. What you need to do is run the 3ds Max native converter to convert those to Physical Material (check screenshot), afterward run the V-Ray converter to convert the Physical materials to V-Ray Mtls.

Regarding the crash, when the VRayConverter tries to convert the Autodesk Bitmaps to VRayBitmaps, it seems to have trouble reconnecting them to the Autodesk materials. I'll log it.
