I have just been trying to work out why my renders were failing on a new install of max 2010 and Vray 1.5r3a.
It turns out that the problem was that I had ## symbols in my output path eg: C:\##Project\Render\frame_.exr
When attempting to write an EXR, if fails with the Error writing render region to raw image file error, so I thought it was trying to write a region, which it was not. I then switched over to writing a vrimg, and it was attempting to create the file at C:\00700070Project\Render\frame_.vrimg
Each # symbol is being read as a frame number no matter where it is in the path string - I was rendering frame 70.
So I'm rendering to another folder for now, but thought I'd flag the error.
