Tested here and had no real problems.

Only your 766MB big IGS file with all that grass instances is hard to scroll through in the Indigo GUI.

DO you maybe have OpenGL preview enabled? If yes, then try to render with that window closed.

Works perfectly fine for me too. 16 GB of RAM here.

Glad I could help :)
BTW: the Normal Maps on the Grass have gamma set to 2.2. To work as intended gamma for normal Maps need to be @ 1.0.
Also is blending 50/50 of Phong with diffuse transmitter quite much of the last one. Usually 20 to 30% of DT should be enough for a nice result...

Hello Zom-B, I found the option to set the normal gamma in Indigo GUI but unfortunately there is no option for this the blender exporter :?, but thanks for the tips anyway.

Actually there is. Go to the texture for your normal map, there will be a gamma slider there.
