Render Presets - Environment issue

[paneli]

Imagine the situation.

I save my render settings into a render preset.

Saving my work, closing 3D MAX.

After awhile, opening 3D MAX once again, loading my scene and picking up the same render preset.

 

The issue - as soon as I load another preset (or reload the same) the Vray Sky returns to default setting (in other words, loses connection with Sun) and I have to pull the configured Vray Sky from the Material Editor (Instance or Copy) again to the GI Environment.

 

It wouldn't be so terrible if I had only 1 or 2 viewpoints.

But I have 6. It's kind of annoying resetting the GI Environment every time I change the render preset.

 

The problem appears in both machines.

One runs Windows XP SP3 with 3D Max 8 & Vray 1.5RC3

Second runs Windows 7 Ultimate 64x 3D Max 2009 & Vray 1.5SP4a

 

Help?

 

P.S

What presets are used for if not quick loading render setting to a current view or scene?

 

Edit:

I tried the same thing with Windows 7 Ultimate 64x + 3D Max 2011 & Vray 1.5SP5.

Anyway to get over this?

Try this,

Select sky from Rendering,Environment,environment map,drag from the same place to v-ray environment settings in v-ray settings and use v-ray sun.
