  • Clipper in Mesh Mode + Shadow Map = Unhandled Exception

    Hello,

    I have just come across an unhandled exception in a rather special combination, that is reproducable (Vray 3.50.04, Max 2016):
    - Create a box
    - Create a VrayClipper, turn it to Mesh Mode, turn off replace mesh with clipper, pick the box
    - Create a standard spot light, enable shadow map
    - Render -> Unhandled Exception

    The workaround I found was excluding the clipper from the light. The only reason I use shadow maps at all, is because the volume light effect does not work with Vray shadows.

    I can use the workaround, I just want to let you know about the error and maybe save somebody the search for the problem.

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Hello, Bob

    Thank you for reporting the issue!
    I'm glad you found a workaround. The crash however should not happen so I logged this in our bug tracking system.

    Best regards,
