Keeps hanging on Irradiencemap or render

[NL2911]

Hi,
I'm stuck with a render issue. Vray is failing to calculate the irradiance map or to render a particular part with forestpack.

I have a maxfile with a terrain and all the forest objects i use. I have an Xref loading the building.
If i render from inside the building the render is failing,  in the irradiancemap phase or in the render.

If i render exteriors, it is rendering fine...

* i have tried to render without glass
* i have tried to make new forestobjects
* Forestpack 4.2.0b / 3ds max 2014 SP5 / Vray 3.0 / using DR


Hope someone can help, with the deadline coming end of the week..

Tnx in advance!

I suggest you contact directly with ChaosGroup about this issue. Similar problems with V-Ray 3 have been fixed recently, as this:

Unfortunately there is not much we can do regarding the rendering phase, since it mostly runs within the V-Ray core.

Ah tnx!

I've contacted Chaosgroup for the nightly build.

Ok, anyway if i remember well those nighty changes are already included in VRay 3.00.05. If you have not this version, you would try upgrading to it.

Still got the problem with Vray 3.00.03....
still waiting on response from the chaosteam.

Did you try with 3.00.05 ? That's the latest release.

crap... i totally overlooked and thought the .03 was the latest.
I will install and try!

Tnx!
