Bercon maps 2018 crash Max when using V-ray DR or Net render

Prepping our farm for the shift to Max 2018 and the only issue so far is Bercon maps. I’m not sure where else to go to report this, so here I am.

Using Bercon maps with 3dsMax 2018 with V-ray Distributed Render or sending to Backburner instantly crashes Max. Other wise the plugin seems to work fine.

Can anyone else reproduce this? Is there someone or somewhere else I should report this to? (no idea who’s keeping up with development for this plugin(really really wish it was integrated into v-ray(pleeease)))

It looks that it’s not a V-Ray problem. Saving a scene (which is something V-Ray does when submitting a DR job) with a bercon map on Standard material (no V-Ray installed), crashes max 2018 too. You can report it to Autodesk.

Confirmed, Bercon maps(except bercon tile) crashes 3dsMax 2018.4 on file save when it’s applied to a material or light in the scene.

I know it’s not a V-ray issue, but an issue with bercon maps. Just not sure who’s keeping up with development. I’ll try posting this on the Github page for bercon maps.
