I have this issue with vray nightlies. It doesn't render material preview. It happens in vray gpu. When I set material renderer to default scanline then it works then I need to switch to vray cpu for material renderer. But again it starts to disappear. What is the issue here?  -

No issues here. Which nightly build do you have installed? Any license issues? Or error messages? Comment -

It happens with whatever nightly version I use. It started to happen when I did "View image file" from "File" menu option.
This doesn't happen with stable vray release. Comment -

Have you tried updating the swatches preview after switching the Material Editor renderer? Also, check if manual update is active in the Material Editor Options (CME>Options>Options). Post a screencap of those settings. Comment -

Is it because I am using vantage live link? This doesn't happen with vray gpu stable version. Comment -

No issues on my end with Vantage live link active. Which nightly build do you have installed? Does it happen without Vantage live link? When exactly does it happen? Comment -

It is very randmoly. It happened without live link too when I clicked "File > View image file" inside 3dsmax. I can't seem to figure out what is causing this in nightly build. Could be it because of other renderer installed on my 3dsmax? I have octane, fstorm, centileo, arnold installed. Comment -

I cannot reproduce it still. Could you try the suggestions from this article and see if that makes any difference?
