Ever since installing SP6 maya has been crashing quite frequently while using XGen. In addition, mental ray has been throwing fatal errors. Working with XGen has been a nightmare thus far and I greatly regret switching our hair pipeline to Xgen. The problems batch rendering multiple descriptions in the same scene, the issues with namespaces...
And now those issues are supposedly fixed, but I can't even test it all because Maya and mental ray crash constantly. These are real show stoppers with this technology. It looks great and the tools available to style the grooms are wonderful, but the amount of bugs and the instability are a serious nightmare.
Am I the only one pulling my hair out trying to use this in production?
