XGen multithreaded disabled : XGen is currently unstable when using multithreading, so the toggle is now removed and ignored on ArnoldXGen , and may be re-enabled at a later date when XGen handles internal multithreading better. Note that if you have multiple XGen procedural locations, that can also cause instability if parallel_node_init is turned on in ArnoldGlobalSettings , so if you experience crashes please turn that off as well. Finally, the XGen procedural in MtoA will be updated to guard against these crashes in the near future so that parallel_node_init does not need to be turned off. (353)
