VrayColor map in Vraylight texture slot crashes on temperature

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

I’ve always used invisible Vraylights with a Vraycolor alpha 0 set to a desired temp rather than a color, but in 3dsMax 2025, Vray 6 update 2.1 its an immediate crash. Color works OK, just not temperature. Can it be fixed?

Quick update - temperature works OK and crash avoided if I disable texmap preview in the VrayLight viewport roll-out. Just thought of that after posting, tried and it works.
