It is impossible to provide proper guidance if you do not follow our recommendations or respond to let us know what works (as well as what doesn't).Īt any time, may go back to a previous combination of software that worked for you. Please follow the suggestions we offered on that page, and let us know how what happens. Try this when it comes out it may resolve your issue.ĭid you try all of the suggestions during our previous correspondence? The fix will be provided in the next patch to formZ 8.5 (in a day or two). We reported this to AutoDesSys they responded immediately and have fixed the issue. We recently discovered a problem with the release version of formZ 8.5 that might lead to random crashes in any formZ plugin that uses a certain common function. It must be frustrating for everyone involved when software changes dramatically and compatibility issues arise. When Maxwell works it can be a great asset. ![]() This is truly a shame since I set up all three of these interior images to be rendered in Maxwell which ate up a lot of extra time adjusting lighting and materials specifically for this plug in. I am forced once again to resort to using the old ( ancient) RenderZone plugin with lots of Photoshop post processing. They just want top quality images produced quickly and efficiently with no excuses for software glitches or computer incompatibility. I really wish my clients were sympathetic to my software issues but that is never the case. Other than that there is nothing else to report other than Fire is working about half a fast as in the old version. When reloading a texture that was named incorrectly the program crashes occasionally as well. I have examined the Maxwell Log and noticed lots of Texture Naming Warning Errors which I have tried to correct. The fastest machine with the $1000 graphic card crashes the most. What is amazing is that the older machine is actually quite a bit more stable with Maxwell. It should be mentioned that this is happening on all three of my computers which range from an old i7 960 with an old graphics card to a new dual processor 20 core xeon machine. Is there anyone else out there experiencing stability issues with the latest release? Just enough to make the program unusable enough to abandon it once again. Sometimes it works for 3 or 4 conversions and then. ![]() If I change a material to a Maxwell Material (best match) and hit the Preview button the program crashes. If I take a material texture loaded in Form.z and then decide to convert it to a maxwell material and edit it the program crashes. If I take a texture pattern and go to Maxwell Materials and try to mirror the texture while still in Form.z the program crashes. If I take my Form.z glass and convert it to Maxwell Architectural Glass Clear the program crashes. All my issues are related to the materials. I am now experiencing constant crashes and stability issues using Maxwell. I upgraded to the new release of 8.5 and have installed the latest Maxwell plugin.
