I'm having trouble installing the render slave versions of 2.5 on my Vista 64 machines. The installer will not find the Max 2010 folder, and when I try to browse to find it the browse window does not show "my computer" it shows some kanji characters and will not work properly. I tried just typing in the correct path for 2010 but that did not work either. The same installer worked fine on my two xp64 render slaves.

Bug in the installer or something I could be doing wrong?

Thanks.

I'm having a bad problem with this new version, every time I pick Vrayscatter from the menu it crashes Max. I've mad sure that I've installed the correct version, I've deleted the .dll file and reinstalled the program and it does the same thing. I'm using Max 2009 SP1 with Vray 1.5 SP2 and I've installed "VrayScatterSetup_SP2_WS64.exe" onto my workstation. I've tried going back to a previous version of VrayScatter but the don't seem to be working I need some help!! :(

I have version 2.04b installed right now and it's activated, when I click on the VrayScatter button the UI opens up and the first thing I notice is the count is set to 0.0. Any attempt to change the count number fails and it stays on 0.0, if I place the scatter object in my scene I see the objects scattered around but when I render there is nothing there. I tried downloading version 2.5, when I click on the VrayScatter button Max immediately crashes so I have no opportunity to do anything with it. I've tried reinstalling both versions several times but nothing changes so I have no idea what is wrong. Could something be wrong with my key file?

Still having the same problem trying to install in Vista 64. It won't recognize the directory for 2010 Design and will not let me add it manually. Installs fine in 2008 and 2009 though.

Also: with the latest builds of SP3 VRS crashes almost constantly with distributed rendering. Also not rendering the VRS Texture either. The VRS texture either renders bad buckets or crashes Max. I know you do not support the latest non-release builds, so it's just a heads up.
