In 50/50 save image crash 3ds Max 2016.

+1 really annoying

Hi,

Is there any consistent elements to the scenes that crash? Are there scenes that always crash every time you save? I have not been able to duplicate your issue yet.

I'm experiencing this too. In order to save images, I have to use the full production render mode. This has another issue: when cancelling a render, the render engine fails until a computer reset. If you try to open the viewport or render material previews or try to start a new production render, it just hangs there and will refuse to render, but with no warning. A close and re-opening of the application has no effect.

Hi,

Thanks for the elaboration. I will see what can be replicated from this.

Same here,

Saving directly from octane viewport creates this problem. Porting to max VFB and saving works.

It seems I've remedied my issue on a particular file bu deleting some complex STL imported geometry. I don't imagine why that would have any impact on material previews or the production render, but it did fix the problem. Perhaps there is a memory leak somewhere?
