Crash seems caused by an incompatibility with the Arnold libraries.
I noticed of it while development, and theorically was fixed. But obviously not in all cases.

Unfortunately there is not a workaround. We'll check it.

Crash for me as well FP in max 2024. FYI: no Arnold installed.

I have not experienced this myself, though I just updated to 2025.1.  I will test on some of my other systems.

[RealViz]

For me the same. No Arnold instaled.
Tested on 3 other computers. All max 2024.

Arnold is installed by default in Max. Do you uininstall MaxToA manually ?
If so, please install it and test if crash is solved. Thanks.

I could reproduce this issue uninstalling MaxToA, so probably that's the problem.

Currently Forest assumes some MaxToA is installed, and initializes several Arnold data at startup. We'll try to fix it.

[RealViz]

Confirm. Arnold is manually/scripted uninstalled on all machines.

[iToo]

Fixed for next update.
It will work fine without Arnold installed.

[Tehamnes]

Yes, I uninstalled Arnold, so I guess that's my problem :-)
