So I Just updated my Vray5 to Update 1.1. Vantage Livelink Works perfectly until at a point, the camera which I am switching to, in 3ds max doesn’t switch in vantage anymore. I tried it in many scenes , I have the same exact problem.
Also If I delete any object in 3ds max, it doesn’t update in vantage viewport. The Live-Link Status still shows that its connected on port 20701.
Hi Alokpatil,
While in Live Link If you open the VFB in Max and open the V-Ray log does it display any errors? Can you please send screenshots? Also does your scene contain IES lights?
Best regards,
Alexander
This bug is caused by IES lights in V-Ray for 3ds Max when interactively rendering while in GPU DR(which basically is what Live Link is). It has been fixed internally, but it hasn’t been released yet. I will inform you when a build will be available with a fix for this. As a note for now use Live Link without IES light enabled.
Best regards,
Alexander
This problem should be fixed in the latest V-Ray for 3dsMax update - V-Ray 5 for 3ds Max, update 1.2 .

Yes , I have updated the software, haven’t tried the IES Lights yet. Are you saying that we can use IES Lights from now on?
(Vantage is awesome)
Yes, IES lights shouldn’t cause a crash with live link anymore.
