vray render problem

[tween25]

Hello all ;

I have a problem about 3D Max . Help me for find a solution !

My stage project that designe on 3D max is 11,000,000 poligon and while I rendered it 1980*1080, my computer give "vray unhandled exception" eror. I enable proxy for half of all objects and poligons drop of 6,000,000. However while I rendered it (dont open dialog box as yet ), 3D Max turn off. I exept your helps for find a solution !

My computer sistem is “Os.winxp64 3dsmax 2008.vray 1,5 r3, pi5 750 processor, 8GB Ram ddr3

All the best !

Turning objects into proxies does not reduce the polycount. It just enables vray to load them more efficiently. Try turning of the framebuffer (render to memory framebuffer off) set the max framebuffer to 1x1 and turn of "get resolution from max". That way you dont need the ram for the vfb + renderelements and that might help. The crash is not necessarily Ram usage tho. So submitting your logfile to chaos would be a safe bet.

Set the dynamic memory Limit in the vray settings to 6000, or check the logfile as instinc-vfx suggested

i had this problem many many many times, once i changed to 1.5 sp2 it was all good but the problem was also that i had only 4gb of ram, now i have 8 and no problem, but u have 8 too hmmm try to change to vray sp2. it have to work.
Did you set up your 8gb in the BIOS? u have to enable the memory remap in Bios, but also check ur task manager how much is the physical memory? if its much less then 8 then do that setup in bios.

it's strange that ppl have those problems. Some time back I was able to render 16 Million polygons without any proxy or other help on my LAPTOP with 4Gigs..! I know a problem in Vray SP2 which causes an error using Vray Camera and Motion Blur... but that's all about it.
