On my new computer (dual quad core intel 64 bit) Vray 1.5 rc3 with MAX 9 refuses to do full renderings. It calculates lc and irradiance but then it gets stuck. Only 1 of 8 processors is still 100% busy, but the rest is down and nothing much happens. I have to cancel the process.
On other occasions it gets stuck somewhere halfway the irradiance map, only 2 processors are busy, the rest is down. No way to cancel the rendering. Cancelling the process is the only option.
I work with xp64, 8 gig of ram and a USB lisence key.
I’ve strugling with this for a few days now, needless to say that I seriously need to get going with this new computer.
Might it be possible that Vray has problems obtaining a licence from the WIBU key? I just noticed that it is only 32 bit. Could this cause a problem with 64 bit software? Does Vray look for a licence server at the beginning and the end of rendering? Or does it do that at arbitrary times?
I’m now running a session with MAX9 and Vray 1.5rc3 on my dual duo computer (or was that a dual hyperthreaded computer, is there a difference?). So far it runs ok.
Will keep you posted.
Is there anybody else having a dual quatro computer running Vray on MAX 9?
Hmmm…You mean do I have a dongle…Nope…Still using server I guess…emailed the code to vlado to get key or whatever…Sorry…
Server means that you can have one license and ten installs of vray …BUT only one can work at a time right. We have three licenses so far. So Iguess local.
Oh…DId a NEW service pack come out…I installed the SP1 that was here linked two days ago and still the same thing…But I have reinstalled it 3 times when I was trying to get vray to work thefirst time. For some reason the path was the 32 bit program files directory and I never saw it…DOH
My machine is a local clone and to my request they made it very quit.
Much more so then the dual duo machines from a year ago. I’m, now, very satisfied with it.
