Title: Crash during Lightmix Element Denoising
Post by: alexyork on 2016-11-25, 17:17:49
Hi all,

On 1.5.2 here with 2016 - getting crashing when rendering 6k renders during the denoising phase (when I've hit Stop in the VFB, rather than letting the render finish). It seems to save out all passes/elements including LightSelect Elements and they are denoised, but it doesn't save out the LightMix element, so this leads me to believe that the issue is somewhere related to that. I.e. Lightmix + Denoising. It seems fine at lower resolutions like 3k.

RAM usage during all of this is perfectly within bounds so it's not dumping out to the pagefile.

There's no error or anything. What seems to happen is that some kind of Corona window pops up with the yellow smily face and then flips between that and max and the desktop like crazy thousands of time in some kind of loop before the whole thing disappears with no error window and no Lightmix Element saved.

Cheers,

Hi, sorry for the lack of response here... I'm starting to suspect that the forum is hiding some posts from me. ;)

Is this something you are able to reproduce consistently? Or does it just happen randomly? Any chance to show it to us, or to record the screen when it happens?

Hi Maru,

This isn't a consistent issue and seems very sporadic. But a common theme appears to be high resolution. I'll let you know the next time it happens so we can try to nail it down.

Great, you could also report it to the helpdesk if you want to.

happens for me as well.
c4d r18 and a6 rc3

crashes as soon as i stop VBF and it saves outputs. i cant get to post-pro directly in corona.
only way to post-pro is during render process which is painfully slow

any ways to reassign saved exr in VBF after crash for "getting work done" properly? need for lightmix purposes...
