Proxy: Automatically create Vray Proxy freezes Max

[kosso_olli]

I have a car interior here that I need to write out as a single proxy. Around 1800 objects. When the automatically create proxy checkbox is ticked, Max just freezes. I know this was happening years ago, but thought this was fixed...

Is there any CPU activity at all?

Best regards,

Yes, it is working on one core. It worked in the end by the way, but it took around 20 minutes.
The proxy itself writes to disk just fine, the freeze appears as soon as that is finished.

Yes, that's the part where we replace the scene objects with proxies, it seems that 3ds Max is very slow in that part of the process. Might be related to the Undo queue, I have to check.

Should you need the scene, tell me. Thanks.

[vlado]

A scene would be helpful, certainly.
