VrayMultiSubTex + VrayParallaxTex = crash

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

Bbitmaps from Cosmos plugged via VrayMultiSubTex into VrayParallaxTex cause crashes. Please fix.
BTW will VrayParallaxTex be supported in Vantage?

Reproduced and logged (VMAX-15571).

Yes, it will eventually be supported in Vantage as well.

This is fixed in the latest V-Ray 7 for 3ds Max update 4.

well technically it’s true (no more crashes indeed) but generally the multitexture+parallax combo doesn’t work

OK It works if using option 1 (with materialbyelement modidier)

option 2 currently isn’t the way:

Works with Random by element, too. The Parallax node just needs to be after the VRayBitmap (as in the first example) and before the multisubtex.

7

with parallax node in the middle user looses the convenience of “batch load”

8

True, will make a note about this.

it’d be nice to have batch load inside parallax map AND ability to procedurally randomize parallax’s parameters - lighting power, elements visibility, room depth, plane offsets etc

Please log the idea in the Portal.
