VrayRT 1.50SP1 + Max design 2010 = CRASH

[theedge]

Hi,

I finally managed to download latest vray (sp4) and vrayRT (sp1) versions and installed them. Vray works fine. But when I try to activate vrayRT, max instantly crashes, every time. This happens when I click on the button to assign vrayRT to ActiveShade. I don't even get the window to choose the engine to assign : max crashes as soon as I click the "..." button.

I tried uninstalling only vrayRT, and I could access the assign renderer again.

Then reinstalled vrayRT, and the probleam reappeared : impossible to use vrayRT.

So at the moment I'm trying to download previous version of RT again to see if it works.

My version of 3ds max is Design 2010 SP1 with latest hotfix installed. Don't know if that matters but it's a french version.

PS : due to chaosgroup server problems I thought that maybe my vrayRT install file was corrupt and redownloaded it for the second install. But that didn't change anyhting.

Do you have a non-English version of 3ds max?

yes vlado, as I said I have a french version of 3ds max.
Does that matter ?

[vlado]

Apparently there is some issue with non-English versions; we are looking into it right now.

Thanks vlado

Hope that this is not a too big issue.
For the moment I'll switch back to the previous versions of the plugins.

So we found the problem now with non-English versions of 3ds Max (there was a problem with one of the menu items we are trying to add); we will have to release a patch for this, hopefully this will happen around the end of this week.

Best regards,

Hey, I thought that update would be posted in the download section.
It's only available upon request ??

[vlado]

Yes, it will be posted, of course; just tracking one or two issues that cropped up (like this one).

Best regards,
