Hi all.
I've been working with VRay 3 since it's release and updated it to 3.00.05 (I know there is a 3.00.06) with no problems until this morning. I tried to open a maxfile that I've been working on for a number of weeks and it fails every time. Other machines here can open it with no problems. So I started going through a few processes i use to recover files. I merged in to a new file the objects bit by bit until it crashed. All was well until I tried to merge in three VRaylights. So I tried again, one at a time, each on crashed the maxfile.
So from this evidence i assumed that these lights were the problem. I then tried to open a few maxfiles that use VRay lights. All crashed. I then opened a maxfile that did not use VRay and it opened with no problem.
I then started a new maxfile, loaded in VRay, drew a couple of objects and rendered no problem. I then tried to create a VRaylight....................you guessed it.............there was a problem. When I click on the button absolutely nothing happens. I can create a VRaysun and other VRay objects such as planes and proxys. Just not VRaylights.
I've uninstalled VRay and re-installed. Still the same. I've updated to 3.00.06, still the same.
So now I am currently uninstalling max, to re-install everything and see if that fixes the problem. I will post back with my findings, but in the mean time, I wondered if anyone had any suggestions as to what it might be that has caused this nightmare.
Cheers.
