DR2 crashes every time cancelling render with Forest Pro

V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max Issues
1

Hi All,

Crashing with Forest Pro when cancelling render, using the new VRAY distributed render V2

  • If I use the new DR2 with Forest Pro (without running a Remote Dispatcher) it will crash every time I cancel a test render.
  • If I hide the forest pro elements, or use the VRAY Remote Dispatcher, it does not crash.
  • I want to run without the dispatcher because the VRAY frame buffer does not update if I do.

This crash has happened with the last several months of nightly VRAY and forest pack versions. Currenlty using:

  • 3dsmax 2026
  • vray_73002_max2026_dr2_x64
  • ForestPackPro940_x64
  • Nvidia Studio drivers 581.57 RTX 5090 with 4x 4K monitors.

Posted to Itoo forums as well, and got a reply saying they have reproduced the bug, so hopefully will resolve soon…

iToo contacted us since the issue is probably on our side. Our devs are debugging it as we speak. Will inform you when there’s movement on a fix.
