"Can you test one thing please - when you export from MoI click the little arrow in the lower-left corner of the Meshing options dialog and try one version with "Weld vertices along edges" turned off and one with it turned on."

Good call! It only crashes when the "Weld vertices along edges" is enabled for the .fbx export. If I disable that, I have no problems rendering/working with this mesh.

Thanks for testing that Jeff, that gives me a specific thing to focus on.

Does the "welding-on" crash happen on something really basic like a sphere?

If so then I will make a couple of different sphere tests for you to try so I can try to figure out how to have welding enabled without nuking Max.

Hi Michael,

Although I have not been active on forum for a while, I do look in regularly and have been using the beta builds.

Some nice improvements/additions.

I have seen some (at the moment) unrepeatable problems with trimming, so will let you know if I can eventually repeat them in a saved file (it was looking like the problem with the booleans, where it would not be correct on the first attempt).

Regards,

Hi Steve, thanks!

I don't currently have any other reports of intermittent trim problems, like where it won't work but will work if you try it again. It would definitely help if you could get a reproducible example.

I'll keep my eyes open for that issue as well though.

Thanks,
- Michael
