Spawner fails, Busy with 0.0.0.0

[victorwol]

Hi! I'm getting this weird error after a while of working today, so far 3 times, couldn't find a solution other than to close and restart the spawner...

error message says in the logs:

Warning: DR Request received from 192.168.2.79, but currently busy with 0.0.0.0

what is this???

any way to fix it?

Thanks a lot!

I can confirm that the problem is somehow related to the fact that one of the animations I'm working with have an audio file, Max on the remote computers opens a dialog box asking me:

Your animation have an existing audio file: \\path......wav...

Would you like to lad this default Sound?

if I click OK, then the error message goes away and Vray Spawner keeps rendering fine...

Bug??

It looks like a bug in 3ds Max... can you get me one such file to vlado@chaosgroup.com ? Perhaps I can forward it to the Autodesk guys so that they can figure out a solution.

Best regards,

Thanks! if you think it is a MAX bug, I will report it to them. I will see if I can reproduce it with another scene, this is too big and confidential so far. Can't send it to anyone at the moment. But I guess if the problem is really the audio, then deleting the objects and leave just a few primitives might show the problem too.
