I’m having issues with DR, when adding the Render Element : Enhancer Data; It stops doing anything after the line: Waiting for cryptomatte manifest…  
When I remove the Enhacer Data, ik works just fine.  
Both machines have same latest version of Vray using GPU to render, nothing fancy.

Dear [diego\_ruffodebonneval](https://forums.chaos.com/member/290483-diego_ruffodebonneval), hello.

Welcome to Chaos Forums!

We have encountered some issues when using Enhancer Data RE, which will be fixed in the upcoming hotfix, see [here](https://forums.chaos.com/forum/v-ray-for-sketchup-forums/v-ray-for-sketchup-bugs/1240222-v-ray-crashing-when-using-enhance-element-and-multisub-material?p=1240238#post1240238).

To understand how much your case corresponds to our findings, please define:

- if you use CPU, is there any difference
- if you render locally (no DR) on your machine, does the project crash or not
- could you share with us a test file to examine it in our environment

Best way to share projects is via [our contact form](https://support.chaos.com/hc/en-us/requests/new).  
Please choose **Product usage questions or issues** for _Request Type_, and mention the forum thread in the description.

Waiting for your answer.

Best,  
TS

Hello [diego\_ruffodebonneval](https://forums.chaos.com/),

I would like to let you know that the crashes with Enhancer Data render element have been fixed with the new V-Ray 7 Update 2.1. Could you please confirm if your issues are also resolved after an update?
