Title: 3ds max2021 preset error
Post by: junchien on 2021-04-28, 16:57:05
I'm using the official version of Vray 5.0.1. After installing Corona's July 21st daily build, the preset of the rendering panel will be directly wrong and freeze. I tried to delete the configuration file and Vray did not solve the problem. I After uninstalling Corona and reinstalling the daily build on December 10, 2020, the error no longer occurs. I believe you can reproduce this error when Vray and Corona build version on April 21 appear together on 3dsmax2021

Hi, I am sorry, but I do not fully understand your report. Here are some questions:
1) Is it directly related to Corona or V-Ray? Or maybe both?
2) "After installing Corona's July 21st daily build" - can you specify which exact build you mean? Which version is it?
3) "the preset of the rendering panel will be directly wrong and freeze" - I don't get it, sorry. Can you explain what happened?
4) "I tried to delete the configuration file" - what configuration file do you mean?
5) "I After uninstalling Corona and reinstalling the daily build on December 10, 2020, the error no longer occurs." - does it mean that you are not experiencing the problem any more?
6) "I believe you can reproduce this error when Vray and Corona build version on April 21 appear together on 3dsmax2021" - can you please explain how exactly to reproduce it?

Sorry for so many questions, but your report is really confusing to me, and thank you in advance for your answers!

I'm sorry that my expression is not very accurate,
The problem on my computer is the daily build version of Corona7-2021-04-21. When it and Vray5.0 update 1 exist at the same time, it loads custom rendering presets, which causes MAX to crash. I tried many methods , It will only appear in this version of the daily build on 2021-04-21 every time. I reinstalled the daily build load rendering preset of 2020-12-10, and it no longer crashes.

3dsmax version: 2021
Vray version: V-Ray 5, update1, Corona 7 (12-10)

I have exactly this setup, and it is not causing any troubles (see attached screenshot).
Can you please explain how to trigger the issue? What should I click and in what order?

I installed Vray5.1update1, clicked -preset - to load any system or my rendering Preset, it no longer crashed; At this time, this computer only has one renderer Vray, and then I install Corona2021-04-21. At this time, the computer has two renderers CR&VR. I switch to Vray, click -preset - to load any system or my rendering Preset, at this time, Max will directly error, prompt error and need to exit and save.

I seem to have found a way to temporarily solve the problem. This problem is a bug of Autodesk 3dsmax, but it does affect the existence of versions after CR7.0 (2021.3)
Because of this problem, I have reinstalled my WIN10 and all plug-in renderers countless times. I seem to get inspiration from my colleague. The low version CR and VR5.1 exist at the same time (without any problems), CR7.0 (2021 Daily build) and Vr5.1 exist (there will be a crash), create a maxstart.max in C:\Users\your username\Documents\3ds Max 2021\scenes and you will get a 2021.3update that perfectly fixes the BUG
