Saving an image to make an MXI crashes Maxwell Render...

Not sure why.

[Q2]

happens to me also from time to time, I usually get it to do the job by converting my picture to a different file type ( jpg or png)

cheers
Q3

[choo-chee]

I had issues regarding character sets (I write in Hebrew...) that maxwell cannot use. If you try to type a filename with something that is not English it will crash or say it cannot save. (2.7)

Aaron,
did you get a solution for the crashes? I have the same here, on 2 different computers. fortunately I still have V2 to workaround, but it's no fun.

this is the error log (or the part in which I assume the error is described):

[Q2]

have you tried using a different file type to begin with? png or tiff instead of jpg. at least it worked here....

[wimver]

I tried with png (my default), jpg and tiff, same result.

[Q2]

damn!

I actually also used a different computer which also runs maxwell, and it did work there....

Hi, could you send me a failing image file?

Thanks!

I was able to save out as HDR but not MXI

[numerobis]

i have the same problem. I think it never worked for me in V3. HDR is ok.

image file sent to Fernando.

Hi all,

Thank you wimver for the image file.

That problem was appearing in 3.1.0.x and was solved in 3.1.1.0

So if you upgrade to 3.1.1.0 you'll have it fixed.

Cheers!

I'm already using v3.1.1.0

Hmm, we cannot reproduce it here.

Just wondering... why do you want to translate them to mxi? You can use LDRI images as emitters or IBL. It's true that the interface was filtering them out in previous versions but you could write *.* to be able to see them and load them. I think it's solved now.
