3D Studio Max crashing when zooming in on VFB

Just thought I’d post up a bug that I’ve been experiencing when rendering at higher resolutions (eg 2100x1600px+).

The VFB works great for low res shots, but as soon as I render high res shots and try to zoom in /maximize the VFB while rendering, 3ds max claims an error has occurred and force closes. The image will render file if I don’t touch the VFB at all. If it’s any help the VFB tends to get garbled sometimes when I minimize Max, and the only way to see my render is to maximize the VFB window again.

Running a very stable machine (3930k with 32gb ram). Also using the Alpha build 5 posted on the forums.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

i had exactly the same problem, but the new build ( you can download them here, fixed my problem Dropbox - Error - Simplify your life )

Yes, this is already fixed, and will be published in Alpha v6

Cheers, thanks for the speedy help guys!

you can use a standard VFB 3D Max at high resolutions it does not break
