    Hey guys 🙂 

    I have an issue with rendering a particular animation. When I render , it renders each frame , composites it and saves it fine , but after two or three frames Blender just shuts down and vanishes right after saving one of the frames. 

    Sometimes it will do it after one frame , sometimes two or three before it happens. Either way it is becoming a real pain in the ass  trying to render out a 500 frame animation a couple of frames at a time. 

    I have four GPU’s and it does it with any or all of them selected. The issue seems to be only isolated to this particular file which is strange. It is a very simple scene , with each frame taking about 30 seconds to render. The most complex part of the animation is a fluid simulation that was baked to 60 of the frames. 

    Unfortunately it is a job for a client so I can’t share the file. 

    I have several variations of the animation to render with different lighting setups which is going to get pretty tedious with this issue , so I was wondering if anybody has come across a similar issue or has any suggestions as to what I could try to solve it. 

    As it stands , I have saved the file to a different location with a different name and am also going to try updating my GPU drivers. 

    Thanks in advance for any advice or help 🙂
