Saved lc renders black

[LarsSonparsson]

Hello

I render basic scene using lc in primary and secondary gi. It looks ok.
Then I save vrlmap and turn lc mode to: From file.
I render scene again and it shows only black. Why?

Hi

are you sure you are rendering from the correct LC file? are you using DR?

[LarsSonparsson]

Yes it's the correct file and no DR.

I'm using 64bit Max and V-Ray. ...if it makes any difference.

[vlado]

Which V-Ray version are you using?

Best regards,
Vlado

Is "dont render final image" still checked ?

[LarsSonparsson]

I'm using 1.5 r4

[vlado]

I'm using 1.5 r4

In that case, please email me to vlado@chaosgroup.com

Best regards,

Ive had this problem quite a few times using the LC on a really high res image.

Just use qmc now instead... a global solution would be nice though.

[LarsSonparsson]

Well, i'm trying to render interior animation, so qmc is not
the best solution this time. I even tried scene with box and teapot.
Render resolution was 640x480. No go. I don't think that the reason is related
to scene complexity or resolution.

Anyway, i'll wait what Vlado knows about this.

We just tested same thing with V-Ray 1.5 r3 32bit version and
everything worked just fine. So, the problem is only in 64 bit version.
(maybe in r4d version).

So, Vlado if you can help us somehow, that could be so great.
(I did send email to you earlier)

Deadline is so near... again...

...err... anyone?
I'm still having this same problem and no one is helping me.
Vlado, I did send you two mails about this "bug". Could you please respond with something. I just want to know if there is some fix coming or
some workaround we could try.

Best regards,

LarsSon
