Hi,

since the last Poser 13 update, I have a very annoying issue. Poser often crashes mid render.

But it smells like a memory corruption.

This is what exactly happens:

- I load simple scene, 1 figure, 1 area light

- render (CPU Fast preset) --> ok

- render (CPU Fast preset) --> ok

- render (CPU Fast preset) --> ok

- render (CPU Fast preset) --> crash

So rendering the same scene without making any modification renders fine for a few times and then it crashes.

It's not with a specific scene but with seemingly every scene file I tried (used Dawn figure, La Femme)

I also notice that large files are being produced in my Poser/Crashdumps dir (~ 4Gb files with .dmp extension)

I saw on Google that there is something call WinDbg to read .dmp files. I installed it and opened one of the .dmp files with it.

But this is far too techincal for me.

The tool showed:

This dump file has an exception of interest stored in it.
The stored exception information can be accessed via .ecxr.
(33bc.4728): Access violation - code c0000005 (first/second chance not available)

Any idea what this might be?

Otherwise I'll open a support case
