i would like to post this to get some feedback and awareness about one issue i encountered recently which caused lots of crashes and a time consuming scene debugging session.
i was getting some difficult to track down but repeatable crashes with C4D R21 and this (but also previuos) version of the plugin. here's the story: i'm working on a very complex archviz scene and tried to reorganize the scene recently. to keep things clean and safe, i used a few "protection" and "interaction" tags and regrouped lots of elements in the scene with null groups to make everything easier to handle. after i reorganized the scene, i had a lot of crashes when starting to use using live viewer and also when rendering to picture viewer. sometimes immediately, sometimes after a while and when interacting with the live viewer.
i tracked it down mostly to the tags. after removing them i didn't get almost no more crashes.
is this a known problem? are there any known issues when using these tags and/or grouping or nested grouping in c4d - octane scenes?
cheers markus
