Render to disk randomly locking up with Full Scene Reload Tweet

[pixerati2]

With Full Scene Reload enabled I'll get two or three frames in and then the render will lock up (Clicking interrupt will then produce a hang of Houdini). Not dependent on any given frame; will render correctly in a different render session (and a different frame will then lock up during that render).

Using latest test build.

A. Windows 10
B. 3 x GTX 980s, 2 x GTX 780s
C. 128 GB RAM
D. Nvidia driver version 382.05
E. Standalone 3.06.1
F. Houdini 3.06.0.5
G. Houdini 16.0.600

Hi,

Do you have the multithread scene loading option enabled? In this case, try to render the scene disabling it ... in another scene reported some time ago, the plugin had a problem with this feature, that I have not been able to fix yet.

In any case, if you want to send me the scene I could test it here to try to fix the problem using your scene as reference.

Thanks,

OK, I'll give that a try and I'll also bundle up the scene and send it to you.

Hallelujah! That did the trick!

I'll still see if I can bundle up the scene when the project's over so you can track down the issue.

[juanjgon]

Yes, please. If you can send me a scene with this issue, it could help to track down the problem.

Thanks,
