VW 2021 Crashing When Rendering Section Viewport

[Patrick West]

Hi All,

Every time I try to render a section viewport VWX crashes. These viewports worked fine until sometime after upgrading to BIG SUR and probably after upgrading to macOS 11.1.

These viewports render fine with hidden line, but I am trying to render them with renderworks background with hidden line foreground.

 

I imagine this might be a RAM issue, but on my activity monitor my Ram is not spiking and I have plenty of ram available. 

Is there some sort of RAM govenor in VW 2021.

 

thanks in advance for any help.

If anyone is seeing this, the only solution I have found so far is to shutdown my iMac and restart. 

It's the only way to render viewports with renderworks and hidden line after complete work session and revisiting the project file later...
