What exactly do you mean by crash?

Some neftis hair was causing weird behavior that went away when the hair was carefully reassembled (lots of material zones that were intermixed). The render would appear to freeze when prepping up for the render....however, it eventually made it through the render...if you gave it hours....

P5 is only a little slower on my machine than P4, except for a few situations (due to whatever the hair bug was)....so I use it over P4. I just wish they'd fix the problem with props that worked in p4 that look like crap in p5....arg.

Now DS is slow for me, so I've only loaded it once or twice.
