Render crash on 3DL

mikael-aronsson

I have a number of scene subsets with clothed characters (G1/G2) that are saved with a DS 4.8 or 4.9 and when I load them in DS 4.10 and try to render with 3DL it give up just after processing the images and when it is about to start to render the first bucket with a "Error during rendering" dialog box, there is no error information written to the log file so I have no idea why it happen but if I remove cloth from the character it starts work work again, so far it has been shoes most of the time but also a pair of pants, now if I remove the problem cloth and lookup the same one in the content library and get it from there instead everything works fine after that, any one else have seen this ? I guess most of you are using IRAY and there is no problem there, it's only with 3DL.

There is nothing strange in the log and it even includes "Image rendered in x seconds" at the end, the renderer will hang DS so it can no longer render, gives a message that a rendering is already in progress so I have to restart DS to get it working again

I have DS 4.9 and 4.10 Beta public build installed and render in 3DL using Genesis1 mostly. For me it works just fine, I can compose scenes or create characters in 4.9 while rendering in 4.10. Only crashes I've had are when trying to use motion blur in 4.10, for some reason that doesn't work very well. Have you tried saving a subset as a scene and merge it into your current scene, then render? Might be worth a try.

I haven't tried loading a character scene subset but I've created a lot of large environment sets and they load and render without problems.
