As soon as I hit fire GPU in MODO it crashes (Everytime without fail). Fire CPU works fine.

Rendering to GPU works fine too.

Windows 10 Pro 64Bit
Geforce GTX 970 4GB - NVIDIA Drivers : 373.06
MODO 902 SP3

UPDATE:

Adding Geometry to Modo while CPU Fire is running crashes MODO - If I launch Modo and then add a Sphere then click fire CPU everything is fine but as soon as I add a second geometry item while the fire CPU is running MODO crashes.

When running Maxwell.exe I get this pop up but before rendering starts - It proceeds to rendering just fine after the prompt



Monitor Res is 3440 x 1440

Hello,

It seems it crashes when no geometry is present.

But in case you have a scene with one sphere mesh.

- Does it crash with GPU?

- Does GPU crash also if you use maxwell physical sky environment?

- Does it crash after you delete the Directional Light item?

(By the way for the new plugin version I have added a CPU/GPU toggle button in FIRE)

Hello,

But in case you have a scene with one sphere mesh.

- Does it crash with GPU? Rendering to GPU is fine. It crashes with Fire GPU

- Does GPU crash also if you use maxwell physical sky environment? Will test

- Does it crash after you delete the Directional Light item? Will test

Using a physical sky enviroment OR Deleting the Directional light item causes this error error without crashing:

GPU & CPU Fire (Plugin version is 4.0.0:



Next I added an area light and GPU fire started and could see phsical sky enviroment and then I added a sphere all was fine as soon as I added a second one it crash

Thanks for the test!

It seems the root of the problem is the empty Mesh object, that makes modo crash.

Yes I agree just deleted the empty mesh and placed a new geometry item! No Crash!

[Marton Day8]

The new version of the plugin (4.0.1) should fix this issue.
