Hey Guys,
I've got a seriously unstable scene here. Crashes consistently within 20 minutes with Indigo 3.2.0
Here's your link
Any explanations for what causes this instability?

why not pack your scene to a "pigs" and upload then?!
with all the local paths is useless atm, and can't be tested

Hi Frutiger,
if I recall correctly, we fixed one specific bug that would lead to a crash a good while into a rendering not too long ago. Could you try with one of the more recent versions of Indigo?
Cheers!

Hey fused,
noticed it that old issue, too... with the actual version of Indigo.

I had some random crashes of Indigo during the last months too during rendering, but thought that was my fault by overclocking, multitasking a lot of stuff etc., but it felt like 1 crash after 300 renderings, so nothing reconstructible...

Alright, I gave it a try with 3.2.5 and it still goes down consistently. Sadface.

Okay,
here's a link to a .pigs version. Didn't even know about that! Thanks!

Rendered for 1h 40min here fine on my machine.
Only thing that seems quite unnecessary and was set up by me is your image saving cycle of 60 sec.
Maybe thats even the issue, saving a big IGI file of 350MB each minute keeps your HDD drive working around the clock, with other work being done during rendering there may be some bottleneck appear here, but that's just pure guessing...
Do you maybe used GPU rendering for that scene (setting maybe not saved in igs)? Filling GPU RAM with stuff can lead into crashes afaik, by GPU rendering and doing OpenGL (Viewport) stuff and GPU accelerated PS work in the background for example...
I would suggest you try Glass Acceleration for your scene too, and keep DOF high, since the blurring let the render look more like a miniature, but well its a wip so don't bother with by babbling

Hi Frutiger,
are you on mac?
If so, could you email us the crash log to support (at) indigorenderer (dot) com?
Thanks!

Yes, I'm on mac. The crash log should be on its way.
Thanks for the time and attention you're spending on this, fused! Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
