Crashes when exiting RT

V-Ray for Maya V-Ray for Maya :: Issues
1

Hi.

I use RT in CPU mode with DR on some slaves. The feature is incredibly helpful for setting up materials and reflectors on vis scenes.
But maya really crashes a lot when I stop rendering with the red stop Ipr button in the renderview. I use the VFB, of course.
To me it looks, like the vray standalone process seems to continue fine.
I can’t provide the scene, but maybe there’s a log that I can send you?

Btw, a good thing is, that I can save my progress while RT is running and before I stop the rendering :wink:

We’re on vray build 19193, Mayax64 SAPSP1, Win7x64.

Thanks!

We had the same issue here as well see this thread:

By upgrading to the last Maya and Vray, the problem stopped.
We are now using Maya SP2 and vray Stable from the 5th of feb.

Thank you. But we use the latest maya already. And our vray build if from Feb, 7th. But a nightly, no stable. Maybe I try that later today.

pechart:
Do you see this problem on all scenes or it is related to a specific scene?
Can you try to use only RenderView to see if the crashes are still there?

Hard to say. Right now it works with an older scene - i can also stop the rendering without a crash. A newer scene crashes before it starts rendering. But I’m already in contact to your support on this via email.
