Slow pre-load

[unknown]

got an issue

XP64-RC3, 4gb ram dual 5140.

it just sits there for ages. it takes about 10-20 mins to load the scene before rendering (transforming verts). and using only 25%(one core) whilst its sitting there.

once it gets rendering, finally, it uses all procs. just seems to take ages to start.

the same file, previous to recent RC3, worked fine as soon as you hit render off it went.

is this a common problem with RC3?

This is a problem specific to RC3 and 3dsmax 9 and happens because of some changes to the 3dsmax SDK. This is fixed for newer builds of V-Ray. If you are interested, please email me to vlado@chaosgroup.com
