Maxwell Render | Official public forum

I have never seen this error before. Does anyone know what it means. "Maxwell (v120-intel) has stopped working.

I it I launched a rendering.

EDIT: It was linked to ies data files. If I switched them to non ies emitters the error went away.

This has resurfaced, mxed (v120-intel) has stopped working. It seemed to happen after I updated my Nvida drivers. It happens immediately when I open MXED. I tested it with 3.2.1.4, 3.2, and 3.1.2.

Anyone else experiencing this?

I am dead in the water. I can not create any materials....

can you roll back to the older nvidia drivers?

Crazy thing is, I checked my other machines after same update and mxed works fine. It must be a corrupt install. I need to find a proper way to clean uninstall the gefoerce experience and all drivers. The reinstall drivers.

I completely uninstalled all nvidia components with the help of Nvidia to insure proper uninstall. It still gives problem with out nvidia software and drivers.

Reinstalled old NVIDIA driver...Reinstalled Maxwell Render. I am still getting mxed (V120-Intel) has stopped working error. Why do these things just pop up out of nowhere it seems. This is not the first time I have seen this error. I had it once with the Maxwell Render application having to do with ies files. I got rid of the ies files and I was able to render. Not sure how to fix this though. Anyone from Next limit have any ideas?

The material editor works inside of studio ok.

No ideas how to resolve this?

I retested previous versions on the computer that is having the error. 3.0.1, 3.1.0, 3.2.0 mxed actually works. but still crashes with 3.2.1.4. It did work then it broke.

So I am opening mxed in the 3.2.0 folder to make my materials.

Have you tried with the latest beta .15? Maybe it had something to do with the included Explorer extension that lets you view materials....not sure.

I have not tried 3.2.1.5 yet. I will try it.

Stumbled on a fix. I opened Maxwell studio. Hit edit on one of the referenced materials. It opened mxed I hit save. After that, I can now open mexd now with any problems.

Well, this error started up again. Out of the blue. I tried what seemed to fix it last time, but it has not fixed this time.

Edit: So I deleted the .mxi and the .mxs in the project folder and now mxed works again.....

If possible it may be helpful to title this thread with the error i.e. (v120-intel) has stopped working.

I've be spending a lot of time in Studio lately and get this error at least a couple of times a day.
With certain meshes brought in as fbx or obj's, even after saved as mxs, using either fire or render will produce the error.
It became so frustrating that I'm currently trying to use a plugin instead, but miss working in Studio.

Maxwell version is 3.2.1.4; will try ...1.5 for any improvement.
I'm on W10.
