Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hey guys,

New to the forum and was wondering if anybody could help me with a problem im having.

Currently rendering a complex prototype from Maya, the emitters i am using are lux emitters, however around the SL 15-16 mark, Maxwell will crash completely.

I am sure it is the lux that is the problem as before hand the emitters were using lumen which had no problem whatsoever in rendering. The problems only started when they were converted to lux

I was wondering if anybody else had a similar problem?

Thanks

This is still subjective. Will it crash if you remove all the other objects except lux emitters?

I have recently tried that by hiding the exterior geometry and keeping the emitters visible and lo and behold, maxwell does not crash!

Therefore i believe that there is some sort of clipping issue that is causing the renders to fail, so im attempting to find out the problem by looking at each individual lux emitter render by render to discover which one is the bad apple...
