mxs error region render

Deadline
1

Hello,



Sorry if this has been discussed but when I use ‘region render’ in the max submit to deadline I sometimes get an error. It’s happened on two different workstations and seems to come and go! I can’t give you steps to reproduce but here is the MXS error (not much help I know!)


[code]

– Error occurred in createRegionGizmo(); filename: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2008\scripts\SubmitMaxToDeadline_Part5.ms; position: 110291

– Frame:

– state: true

– theRegionGizmo: undefined

– called in chk_regionRendering.changed(); filename: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2008\scripts\SubmitMaxToDeadline_Part5.ms; position: 111784

– Frame:

– state: true

– theRegionGizmo: undefined

MAXScript Rollout Handler Exception: – Unknown system exception <<

[/code]



Regards,



Josh.

Hi Joshua,



Unknown System Exception generally means a memory issue in MAXScript.

While the SMTD script tries to increase the MAXScript Heap memory when starting, can you please make sure you set the MAXScript Memory to 64MB in the Customize>Preferences>MAXScript tab (default is 7.5MB) and see if the problem persists?

We haven’t seen this error on any of our systems, as far as I know, nor have I heard of reports about it before.



Let me know if it changes anything.



Cheers,

Bobo
