Hallo. Actually this has been a problem for years. I never bothered reporting it as it was more of an inconvenience than catastrophic…
Very often I’m working in the Interactive Viewport - then when I’m happy with the result I press Render To Picture Viewer without first aborting the Initeractve Viewport. This causes C4D to freeze up and I need to quit from the task manager.
It happens frequently but not all the time. Doesn’t seem to be file specific.
Hi there, are you able to share the crash report if one get’s generated? Or perhaps a video of this happening? Is there a reason why you send it to the PV rather than the VFB? The last point is merely out of curiosity. Thanks.
There’s no crash report - it just freezes forcing me to ‘hard’ quit.
I render to PV as I want to save out a layered 16bit file, which is impossible from the VFB as far as I know.
In the event of a freeze, you can force create a dump, see https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/articles/4648898278545-How-to-report-issues-C4D#h_01FDY55JCQMR188S36A1F0SS1T
