Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hi All,
as the next release is to come soon I thought I should mention this:
Do you guys also experience that a Sampling Level has already been reached but then the Waiting... stays there forever?
Meaning it can take to 5 minutes or so before the View finally gets updated, Win7 64 here.

Maybe sometimes if I start something CPU intensive when Maxwell is nearly finished and it confuses the estimated time remaining, the timer will run out but Maxwell still hasn't reached the required SL.

Perhaps it's also because it takes some times to write the MXI file.

Hi Mihai,
that might generally be an option but the files in question aren't large at all. Mxs and Mxi are
smaller than 20Mb. This isn't limited to my current work-file though, it happens pretty regularly and
with very different Scenes.

I only experience this with large MXI files, due to the time it takes to write to disk. It can increase if you are writing to a network drive.

We all know that brillant, it was more about the next release

Didn't want to cause a hype. NL mentioned a new (point) release to come in I believe July already.
Seems that there were reasons to postpone.

Man it's good to have you back on the forums, def4d.

Not yet, but thank you.
Still hard fighting for my 2 children, almost no work for 3 years, but studying again and again for my "return"
I love Maxwell, and will use ASAP.

Cheers Brian and all of you.

To say it with some humour, and to come back to the real thread subject, it's like i'm waiting... between SL 99 & 100
