Re: passes - crash

[Dawa <dawa(at)topixfx.com>]

Im not sure but we seem to be having problems with passes when there are also groups and layers as well. Some crashes happening. Taking out some groups and layers seemed to make it more stable. However we never searched and found out if thats really the case.

does somebody else experience enormous amounts of crashes as soon as you
start working with passes in 6.01?

i got two different projects that behaved nicely, but when i come to
breaking the scene up in passes it crashes all over the place.

- when i change overide shaders/add nodes/remove nodes
- when i change passes. that gets even so bad that scenes dont render,
because the pass that gets render (farm) is not the current pas when the
scane was saved, and so the renderboxes crash (all of them) - when
duplicating a pass xsi just freezes (with 1 proc busy)

most of this happens not all the time but pretty often. the one scene
contains a lot of reference models the other scene however not a single
one. just plain geometry :/
