Lightwave Constant Freezes/Crashes

[MrFurious]

Has anyone else noticed LW freezing after an F9 render, or in IPR sometimes, or random crashes running Octane 2.x? I can't tell if it's the Octane 2.x update or LW, as I upgraded to LW 11.6.3 and Octane 2.0 at the same time, not the best idea in hindsight...

LW 11.6.3 and Octane 2.x (2.4.0, the last daily build) should work without problems.

What kind of crashes do you get? ... perhaps you have some kind of problem with the config files, if your LW installation is not fresh with new config files.

Anyway if you can isolate one of the crashes, please let me know to try to find the problem. With other LW version do you have also this problems?

Thanks Juanjo I'll try and reproduce the issue. I've been mucking about with drivers also so that may have something to do with it.

[MrFurious]

Would a crash report help?

[juanjgon]

If you have a reproducible crash, the best help is to get the log file (you can enable the log in the plugin options panel) or even better, send to me the scene to try to reproduce the problem here.

If you have this crash problems with all your scenes or the plugin demo scenes, perhaps we could have a system or drivers problem.

Good idea.. I'll see if I can break it with the demo scenes
