RC3 and Max 9 x32 Material Bug

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

We have been able to reproduce this on all our systems. I searched for other references to this in forums but haven’t found it, so forgive me if I missed it.

System:
Various Intel and AMD systems
Windows XP x32
Max 9 x32
VRay 1.5 rc3

Steps to reproduce:
1. Make a box
2. Assign a VRayBlendMtl to the box.
3. With the VRayBlendMtl selected in the material editor, click on the ‘X’ to reset the material editor slot.
4. When asked, choose the option to “Affect only mtl/map in the editor slot”.
5. Crash straight to desktop with no option of recovery.

This happens with all the vray materials EXCEPT the standard VRayMtl. Some materials crash with the option to save a recovery file (like VRayLightMtl), but others do not.

Thanks!

This is already corrected in RC4. It seems to happen because of changes to the 3dsmax 9 SDK.

Best regards,

Very cool Vlado, except I dont’ see the updated file in the support section. I know “patience”, but this is a bad one.
