Starting a few days ago, every time I add an area light to a scene, if it doesn't completely crash Maya, it takes between 2-4 minutes of lag before the lights will add. I have reset prefs, this isn't helping. I reinstalled Maya 2022 completely about 2 weeks ago. It's been so buggy lately, the lights are just the newest issue. Is anyone else experience major bugs, and freezing when adding lights?
My scene really isn't over large, and the only other light I have is a directional light. The exposure of my existing area lights are only at 4. I even exported everything out, and re-imported into a new fresh scene. Also, when I exported me scene, I included my lights, but when importing into the new scene..... the lights are there, sort of, but aren't working. In the outliner, they have a blue star next to them. it's like there is just a placeholder for them. I made sure my import/export settings included lights. I feel like there are more bugs now with 2022, than there were when I downloaded it earlier this year 😕
I read a couple of posts from others that had similar issues with the freezing after adding lights. But there was no resolution. - thank you
