Fresh install of Alpha 6 into Max 2014 (not Design - if that helps). As soon as Max tries to load Corona2013.dlr it bombs out and throws up the Max crash page. Deleting Corona2013.dlr allows Max to load, but obviously with no renderer.
Any thoughts?

Hi there,
If it helps I have the exact same problem with 2013 design.
Thanks

Hi all
I've got exactly the same problem here on max 2014. Both my main pc and the render node have the same spec, same soft etc, on my main corona run smoothly but I've got the same error ( Corona2013.dlr thing) on the render node.
Btw, corona rocks, I'm rendering some scene in order to convince my boss to make the switch :)

Hi, by best guess is that you dont have the lateste windows updates installed. There was a bug in windows core causing crashes when using the latest AVX2 instructions (that corona uses on the modern i7s). They fixed it with a patch published in windows update
-
Thx Keymaster, but I've just checked, windows is up to date, my motherboard driver too. That's weird cause my main pc has exactly the same sepc, same driver etc.
-
Same here - everything up to date. All drivers and Windows Updates.
-
Just do a fresh reinstall of the system ... problem still here. Fresh windows with updates, fresh max, fresh corona annnnnd it doesn't work :(

What If i've got load error, cause my amd fx8350 doesn't support AVX2?

Any other idea what this might be? A clash with another plugin? VRay? ForestPack?

I have both vray 3 and forestpack running on my setup so cant be anything with those.

As it has been already said. This problem is due to the missing windows update. So you either have that update hidden, for some reason, or you use some modified version of Windows.

Both judrake and I have previously said that we have installed every Windows Update available at the problem is still occurring.

Yeah, they may have said so, but that does not necessarily mean it is reality. Not saying they lie, but there are many variables that could be responsible for some of the updates missing.
-
for a while in the daily builds there was some particular windows installer or visual c+ thing that had to be installed, what was that again?
-
It's working \o/
Windows update was actually the problem but I had to manually launch a search for update 4 times cause even if windows said that no more update are available , a manual search found a lot more updates each time ( I'm a linux user, windows updates is like walking into mordor to me )
Thanks all.
