Vray and TreeStorm max plugin

[fts]

Why is Vray Rendering crashing when I have TreeStorm objects?

See error message attached, Anyway to fix that?

Thanks

Here are the typical reasons.

You can check the c:\vraylog.txt file for more clues or call Onyx and see if they can help. I've never had any problems with it.

TreeStorm objects are quite high-poly. My guess is your machine can't handle many objects like that. As a workaround, try converting the trees into VRayMesh (Proxy).

i second that.

I tried converting the trees into VRayMesh (Proxy). but when i reemport them in max i get red objects with no materials.

please advice.

Create a multi-sub object material for the trees before converting them. Then, after you import the Proxy, apply that same material to it. That should do.

Hey thanks a lot. Can I clone the Vray meshes once in my scene or each one has to be imported via the VrayProxy mesh import in the create in the command panel?

you can clone it as instances, that way all the proxys have the same material
