After upgtrading to V-Ray 2 the license is constantly getting “lost.” If a few hours goes by, I will have to unplug and replug the dongle, restart the lic server, to get V-Ray to see the license. This is really getting annoying and sometime almost causes max to crash. Anyone know what might be going on? I have Vista Ultimate x64 and V-Ray 2.00.2 and Max 2011 64 bit. During the update, also updated the Dongle drivers, etc. This used to happen back on max 9 and V-Ray 1.5 but only rarely like once a month. Now it’s doing it almost everyday, often a few time each day.
Okay, well, it still happens, any suggestions from Chaosgroup would be nice…
It’s the only problem I have with the dongle system. Otherwise, it’s a great way to license, but not if it just needs to be messed with so often and unexpectedly.
It’s one license on one dongle on one computer…
Vista Ultimate 64
V-Ray 2.00.02
most recent WIBU drivers
This used to happen to me all the time on vray1.5 (like you mentioned), I found updating the WIBU drivers did it for me - haven’t had a problem since. Although I may have moved to Win7 64 too at around the same time. I think it has to be the drivers (somehow) but I know you said you’ve updated them.
If it worked better with V-Ray 1.5, then you can try to install the WIBU drivers that come with it - make sure you first remove the old drivers. If you still have issues, please email us to vray@chaosgroup.com and our support guys will try to help.
