So I have a sizable scene that will crash when rendering using Vray for Houdini.
Not sure if it's Houdini or Vray or both causing the crash.

Happens on 2 different computers and 2 different versions.

Any help with trying to nail down what happening would be awesome, Thanks

1. Check if you can render in mantra or karma.
2. Was there a previous scene that workes before the crash happend.
3. Disable shaders or meshes to find the problem. It could be a shader or a mesh that could cause the crash.

I'm on it, Running sets of 50 frames with no mats to see how it goes.

And to be honest, I also tried Choas Cloud, and that crashed on going through that process. This leads me to believe it might be less of rendering more on the data side.

And to give you a bit more info this is a pretty heavy RBD 450 frame seq. All cached out to disk

The error message just notes it crashed. Hard to analyse from where the problem comes from. It could be a file sequence as the heavy RBD simulation. It could be also a shader thing.

Just a reminder that if you hit a bug, please log it one of these three ways as seen in the 'read this first' post in each forum.
