I have problem with interior scene on vRay 1.5 SP5

UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: Irradiance map thread
Last marker is at .\src\globillummap.cpp, line 1616: GlobalIllumMap::buildLightMap() {5}
-When vRay calculate IRR map.

I have vRay IES lights and max’s photometric IES lights (distribution photometric WEB, vRay shadow area 10cm)
When I turned off photometric - all is fine, but when on - always crash.

Any idea?

What shadow type do you use for the photometric lights?

Ok, if it is a reproducible error can you get me the scene to vlado@chaosgroup.com to check it out?

I sent the scene with .ies file.
If you render some region of the scene, you will always get the error.
Thanks for help!

I found a source of the problem!
.ies file is wrong. Wheng I change to other .ies file - all is fine.
Sorry for wasted time.
