When i work normally with render (bucket and progressive) all works fine.
But, If i try to hit IPR render it didn’t work at all, and i obtain the error as attached below.
This happens after i completely restarted max and reloaded my scene as well.
After that error i have to close max using task manager.
Reloading the scene , and re-using the normal “render” button all works as expected.
Now 2019 is updated to 3rd pack, but nothing seems to change. I can’t use IPR at all with any kind of scene.
Same issue and same “red” message from v-ray log as the “old” 2019.2
Thanks for the log. From it seems like you somehow manage to start IPR render twice.
In the log there is this message:
[2019/Jan/8|10:51:42] Setting up V-Ray parameters for frame rendering.
At that time V-Ray starts preparing the scene getting various data etc..
then the next message is this:
[2019/Jan/8|10:51:49] Distributed rendering is not supported in production IPR mode.
It is 7 seconds later and is the caused by the second start of IPR. (Don’t mind the message itself - it is always printed for IPR no matter your DR settings).
2) That message appears if i hit “ipr”, and after that i try to hit “render last” button or “render” button
Why are you pressing render last after IPR ? Could you try just pressing IPR and then to wait a while ?
For example now i tried again:
1) Start max from scratch
2) Create a box and a vraylight-dome
3) hit render → OK!
4) Hit Start interactive render → nothing happens (i can’t see any message at all on vraylog)
5) wait 1 minute
6) hit “last render” … i see the red error and max freezes at all… i can only force it to close.
If i start max 2017 and try same way all works normally , ipr .. production render and so on, in any way i try.
So it’s something connected to ipr and max2019 … at least in my configuration.
Interesting
By the way - where is your vraylog file located? Seems like it is located in C: - can you try to move it to some other folder and see if there are any changes?
If that doesn’t help - it would probably be best to write an email to our support - they can arrange a remote session (if that is convenient) and check your installation.
Tested that IPR Starts and works on viewport. I can start and stop normally, but not on Vrayframebuffer. When i try to use it in vrayframebuffer max hangs and i have to manually close as i reported.
This has sense for you? Did a miss anything? vraylog.txt (97.3 KB)
If you still have problems with the IPR renderings, please try to reset 3DS Max by renaming the ENU folder. It is located here : C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2019 - 64bit
