Daily Builds 1.0 - 1.4

Hey antanas, solution 1 is already there in material converter and something similar like solutions 2 and 3 is already requested in appropriate board ;]

I think that those issues should be fixed by the user (possibly via scripting for large scenes).
To me the Error window's job is to point out errors, fixing them is up to the user.

[Ondra]

you are correct, but it is always nice to make the fixing faster and easier ;)

Those are my thoughts exactly ))

Hi,
I'm using now build from 14-09-2015 and I have two problems:
1. Max crashes if it makes autosave during the rendering more or less big scenes. I've checked memory usage - it takes about 1/3 of the RAM I have (32 Gb) for rendering the scene and autosave doesn't make any peaks when it starts. In the moment when autosave starts Max just shuts down with offer to send error report to Autodesk. I've noticed this problem about month ago, so I just switched off autosave before rendering.
2. Today I've noticed that MultiTexture map from CG-Source doesn't work in Object mode. If this mode chosen it works as in Material ID mode. In new scenes I can use CoronaMultiMap, but I have to work with older scenes where I used MultiTexture map quite alot, and MultiTexture map has some useful features I'd like to use in new projects also.

BTW, if I find some bug using daily builds where it's better to make a report about it - here or in Bug Reporting section?

Thanks

New daily build is out - fixes quite a lot bugs, including some performance problems, so give it a try: https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=7238.new#new

Test build 2015-09-22
every day better and better)
p.s.  In scene three types of light sources, disc\sphere\cylinder + PFlow with self-luminous material.

Tested new build 2015-09-22
The problem with CoronaMultiMap (https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php/topic,9264.0.html) has gone at least in my test scene.
Thank you!

Unfortunately autosave during the rendering still crashes Max, now without offer to send the error report. MultiTexture map from CG-Source doesn't work in Object mode still

Cant even open a big scene, try 3 files already with no success, revert to daily 08-27 its opens ok

New hourly build - https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php/topic,7238.msg61445.html#msg61445

Lets go through the usual checklist - RAM OK? What exactly happens? Screenshots? Minidump if it crashes? Can you upload the scene?

Can't wait to try the new build. Those improvements to light sampling look amazing! We've been having a lot of issues with that, so this should be significant.

Ram perfect, 64 gigas, dual xeon 3.6mhz, il says if i want to auto save an thats it, i re open and happens again and again, im recolecting bitmaps and saving it as zip file right now, where to ulpoad it? only at one time it says that i was getting out of ram but wad on a 32 gigas machine, but its only opening so i dont know how this is possible, havent even render yet.
