To be totally honest, that’s how I had to deal with Softimage/Arnold. I would sometimes only open a scene and have it crash for no reason. I could never say Softimage had been a robust experience. After moving to Houdini, it took almost two years to get rid of my fear to click the wrong thing to provoke a crash. That’s how unstable Soft was for me. Luckily I have found peace in Houdini.
Dont bash to hard on crashes, I’ve felt them and they left deep scars.
