Max crashes with direct lights and probabilistic lights checked

[aida]

Hi there,

I just found that Max crashes when the number of standard direct lights is greater than the number of lights in the probabilistic lights box.

Here's how to reproduce it:
- Create a plane
- Create a standard (target) direct light an copy it 17 times
- Check probabilistic lights option (default is 16)
- enable GI
and hit Render -> crash

I tested it with Max 2014/Vray 3.10.02 and 3.20.03 and Max 2016/Vray 3.20.03

Best regards,
Gereon

Hello,

Anyway, Probabilistic Lights is all but usable so ...

Right. I sometimes use it for test renderings but then again, when you forget to disable it an wonder why there's so much noise - it's probably probabilistic
