THEA RENDER & ANIMATOR CRASH

taoklai

I updated to the latest Animator and Lib Fredo, and when I click "render animation" in Thea v.4 I get an instant crash and bug splat. Anyone else have this problem? Any advice? Thank you.

Does it happen with any model ?

taoklai

@fredo6 Yes, I tried even with a simple cube spinning 360 degrees. I can render through Animator by selecting Thea but I loose the motion blur so I wanted to render from Thea interface but it crashes every time.

Yes, something has changed. I will check why it is failing.

As we have figured out the issue requires both Animator 4.5+ and Thea 4.0.1397+ update.
