Ras Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 My MAX 5 crashes very often. Especially after completing a rendering (before saving). Is this a commonly known problem, or is it just my install? I have the Brazil r/s ver 1.0.0 installed, Swift Flash exporter and also a shockwave exporter. It takes me quite some time to do the install with all the configurations and plugins over so if you have any suggestions I will be very greatful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Ramsay Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 Oh noooooooo!!! I get my max5 upgrade in the next few days Cant have it crashing on me all the time I know max5 is very memory hungry, could it be a lack of memory that is causing it to crash?

Is this crash happening after you render with Brazil or with the Scanline Renderer? Alexander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ras Posted October 15, 2002 Author Share Posted October 15, 2002 I just reinstalled MAX 5. This time I was careful to do a rendering of a scene I knew had a high crash-probability (before the re-install) for every plugin i put in. So far no problems - I have no idea why... One thing I know is that before the reinstall it helped to move texture bitmaps outside the MAX directories - I know it´s wierd but it helped... By the way - I like MAX 5! Especially the compatibility features. I was pleasently surprised to find that all my "old" plugins (not many, really) work well in MAX 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
