Hi Tim, Is your crash specific to a particular working file? What are the steps to reproduce the crash? What version of SI are you using?

I have had the same instability when using netview or Internet Explorer for general use while writing scripts and other basic tasks. There’s some kind of conflict going on between the Softimage core and web services on your computer.

I'm rendering a frame locally, which renders fine as long as XSI is front and center. But on occasion, if I have gmail up and am checking messages while rendering in the background, I'll get the following error... 'FATAL: mental ray has encountered a fatal error condition. It has been disabled for the rest of this XSI session. Please save your work and contact Softimage support' To which I must add... 'They were forced to eat Robin's minstrels, and there was great rejoicing... yay....' Any idea why this might happen? It's happened twice in the last 24 hours, and the only common condition seems to be that I've got Firefox up on top checking my email. And don't tell me switch to Arnold. We already know that. -- Tim Crowson Lead CG Artist <mime-attachment.gif> Magnetic Dreams Animation Studio, Inc. 2525 Lebanon Pike, Building C.
