3ds max 2008 problem

[anthonyduo]

I'm running Vista, adn everytime I try to redner hair using max's deflaut hair 3ds max just say error and close to close due to an error, is there any way to fix this?

[minimus]

Does the error say:
Closing due to an error?

[anthonyduo]

The exact words are.

Application Error

An error has occurred and the application will now close. No scene changes have occurred since last save.

[minimus]

and this happens only when you try render?

the typical issue is to little RAM, how much do you have, i heard that Vista should have 1Gb minimum.

4gbs, I think I sovled the problem but now everytime I render the picture, the G buffer render element for the hair and fur won't work.

PS: For anyone who has this problem and searches this topic change your scene's units, anything but the one you're currently using will fix the problem, well at least on mine.

Ok ok I sovled the problem. I wonder if an admin could change the name of this topic 3ds max hair problem, because I dont know how to change the topic titles on 3dm3.com

Ok to fix the problem (anyone who cares) just change the units from somethign different to want you have now. Then delete all the g buffer render elements you currently have on and then put them all back. Dont worry changing the units doesn't change the way your scene looks in anyway. Hope this helps!
