V-Ray error: Failed to allocate...

[NorthVisualStudio]

I'm still having the same issue and it's getting worse. I've tried the current driver and rolled back to older drivers but no success yet.

Edit: I rolled back to driver 441.34 and it seems to have helped;

Hi Guys,

I'll try it to fix in the next few Days.

I'll update to Deadline 10.1.2.2 and Vray for Maya 4.30.01 and see what happens
And also ,in my case, test it out with Maya 2019.

Cheers

Hello,

I think my Problems are gone since I updated to the Nvidia Studio Driver 442.19.
It renders fine since 2 Days..

My Current Setup: Maya 2018 SP6, Vray 4.30.01, Deadline 10.1.2.2 and the Nvidia Studio Driver 442.19.

Cheers!
Tobias

I was away for a while. For me personally, for my non rtx node, none of the above worked. I downgraded the gpu driver on my non rtx node to 431.70, but kept the latest vray installed with 3ds Max, and so far no crashes, and very stable ram usage.

(to reiterate what the symptoms were for me, and my 2 cents: i only have 32gb ram on that node, non rtx gpus, and ram usage was unpredictable, and after many frames, it started using bit more and more and more ram until it gave an out of mem error. Maybe people who have 64gb ram, or more, dont get to to that stage of ram usage slowly filling up and crashing). Hope this info is somewhat helpful for the devs. I'm a bit surprised that there's no response or fix yet. They're probably working hard on Lavina instead, to take a bite out of UE. In a few years when gpus will be alot more powerful, powerful enough to run proper raytracing inside production software, i'd be surprised if "realtime" tricks wont end up being obsolete.

Anyone solved their issue on a PC with 1080 Ti and 2080 Ti?

I'am using Windows 8.1 Professional because it has more availible Vram then Windows 10. Maybe I can't use this operating system with 1080Ti and 2080Ti? Because of no compatible drivers?

I am unable to render even one frame, I tried it on 3 computers now,
whenever I switch to GPU rendering it takes forever to render one frame and then Max crashes before it finishes the frame, no matter how big the file size. What do I do?
I am using nvidia geforce gtx 1050, Intel Core i7, CPU @ 2.20GHz

Does this happen on an empty scene? Are you getting any warnings/error messages, and if so - please do share a log.
Would it be possible to forward the crash dump files so we can have a look? Also try to install the latest recommended GPU drivers to see if this will help.

I'm having exactly the same result when I try to render GPU vs CPU. I'm using an RTX 2080 ti as my GPU.

What I'm finding is that when I initially build a file it will render with the GPU, but that when I try to do a production render using CPU it starts to set up the render then just quits. I haven't looked at the memory issue that some have as I have 256 Gigs of RAM. When I watch the log window under a CPU render, there are no warnings or error messages.

But here is the thing that stumps me. When I merge the file into a freshly reset file, it renders correctly with CPU usage. I'm not sure what setting I may be using that would cause this error, and frankly I don't think I'm doing anything exotic.

A separate issue is that when I switch between CPU/GPU I get wildly different results. The GPU version is blown out and useless. I wouldn't think that the difference would be that profound, as it isn't using any other render software that I use.

I hope that someone can enlighten me. Thank you in advance.
