This seems to be a never-ending problem that I have with IPR rendering with Vray 5 and Maya. Currently running the latest 'stable' release "vray_adv_52003_maya2023_x64_32114_install" and Nvidia Game Ready Driver 531.41 (as recommended by this page: https://www.chaos.com/vray-gpu).
When I start an IPR render, more often than not it'll start it's loading process, then usually around the time I see 'loading textures' in the little info panel, the renderer and Maya hang up and disappear.
It'll be completely random, I may have already had render working then it'll bug out and vanish. For example, I had a render going with IPR just now. I stopped the render, changed nothing and restarted it and it made Maya disappear.
I may open a scene that worked perfectly when I closed it and IPR will hang a crash Maya when I open it again. I've found that optimising my maya scene via the File menu can help it render when it didn't before, even if the only thing it deletes are a random shader or two.
My scenes aren't particularly complicated ones as I mainly do static product renders.
I'm losing my patience with this software, these crashes cost me time and cause me so much stress. Please Chaos, fix the stability of it.
