Does it go away when you deactivate AI Lights?

Have you any issue inscreasing the Out-of-core using Nvlink?

I'm using NVlink. There's the occasional "Mismatching barriers, 5 and 2", but it doesn't crash out max and I can just restart it. OOC with NVlink seems to save me an additional 1 GB of OOC to CPU RAM, maybe less. Not sure if it should be more. Things are generally more stable without nvlink, but I lose the extra Vram.

I also have problems with NVLink and out of memory messages with an aerial image. So lots of vegetation but no "super mesh" scenario. It fails to render with 20GB our of possible 48GB

Hi tcheng00,
"Mismatching barriers, 5 and 2" is a known issue, developers are working on it.

Hi mbetke,
did you try making all movable proxy, non grouping objects, head room 512mb?

I recommend taking a look at this topic, paride4331 helped me a lot.

Hi guys, the setting USE ONLY STANDART PARTICLE is still not set by default, every new project needs to be opened, checkboxed, saved and re-opened. =(

Thank you for that, i'll keep NVlink disabled for now.

just to write it here as it is related:

when gamma hack is ON.. and nonlinear tonemappiing ON => the exr saved is clamped..
so when you expose down in nuke, after or whatever.. there are no highlights properly kept.

if you render with gamma hack OFF and nonlinear tonemapping OFF (whatever response curve as being off is not affected) => the exr saves fine as it did in versions 2019.

Thanks! Hope you can fix it

You mean grouping objects with the 3ds max feature "Groups"? Or attaching them as an editable poly to each other and make them a big object?

I use layers and groups a lot to keep my scenes organized.
