Script calling vray exe twice

[ironbalz]

win-64
First of all let me thank you for your great work, I am a new user to vray, so bear with me please. I have found this issue happens to me on both your custom build 43368 and using the script with build number 43660 I will try a newer build tonite and update if it fixes the issue. I have exhausted searching for this issue here and on the net so im here. I hope its just me and my settings and I have have a box ticked thats causing the problem, When I run the the render for some crazy reason the script calls the vray exe twice. I am not using animation and cannot find a setting for some type of batch rendering. When I render the windows task manager goes from 0 to 2 instances of vray running. I do not have vray installed in 2 places. I am using the 2.0 version of the demo standalone, the blender console also shows the addon calling the exe twice. Everything renders fine I just get 2 frame buffers and 2 renders of the same scene. However, on some of my renders this does not happen, this leads me to believe that my ignorance not your awesome addon is the root of my issues. thx in advance Iron

Could you show me that scene? You could get 2 vray running only if you have material preview enabled, but the second vray won't render the scene but preview.

I can send you the blend file but this happens about 90% of the time when I render any blend file thx Iron

Re: Script calling vray exe twice

VRay now runs not only from F12 but also from F10 hot-key - make sure you are not pressing F10. Win7-64 - everything fine here. Anyone else experiencing this?

solved

Im gonna call it a hardware error or user error, possibly, my kb. I dont use F10 to render however if I press F12 and F10 simultaneously the program will run 2 instances of vray so I have found the issue. Maybe I hit both of them and saved the file. anyway thx for the help. Btw are the hotkeys listed anywhere?

Re: Script calling vray exe twice

F10 is the only hot-key I've added. It calls export-n-render but not the same way as F12, explained here: viewtopic.php?p=4352
