Title: FP07 crashing
Post by: Terri Brown on April 07, 2021, 09:56:13 PM
hi,

is anyone else having issues with their scenes crashing often with FP07? I keep having to merge into a new scene...then it's usually ok, until I set up a camera and try enter camera view...then, boom, crash. So I figured it had something to do with either point-cloud display (I know there've been some issues there), or the new 'enable on viewport' checkbox. So I switched all point clouds to adaptive, and switched off all 'enable on viewport' options. No crashes.

I'm using the latest build with 3ds max 2021 and latest vray.

Itoo can you confirm if this is a bug?

Main issue I have found is any forests using 'exclude or include' spline areas in FP7 - it would just max out RAM and crash. (reverting to FP6 fixes)

I had to convert spline areas to paints, ridiculous but it worked.

We have not had such report yet. Would You please send us a sample file via email? We are interested in solving it.

We have not had this report either. Would You please send (https://forum.itoosoft.com/faq/how-to-send-a-file-to-itoo-software/) us a crashing scene to troubleshoot it ?
We would appreciate it. Thank You.

same here, keep crashing randomly when rendering FP objects created in the previous version.

We can't get our head around as sometime it renders one object and sometime it crashed with the same..

Would You please send (https://forum.itoosoft.com/faq/how-to-send-a-file-to-itoo-software/) us such a scene?
It would help us to get a crash minidump file as well. When it happens for You again please send us the minidump (https://forum.itoosoft.com/faq/getting-the-max-minidump-file/).
Only this way we can identify(and fix) the issue.

Thank You for Your collaboration.

Thanks Rokas,

We will definitely do.
We are trying to get some images out for tonight, so we are under a bit of pressure..but is definitely something that needs to be sorted.

Hi Rokas,

I sent a sample scene a few weeks back - Michal was in touch. He also seems to think it's an exclude spline issue. I'm now having the same crashes on a new file.

Hi Terri. All I can ask- send this new file and we will check it.
