Hey guys, I was just learning what Light Probes are and how to implement them Into my game. Therefore, I created an empty game object and renamed it “Probes” and attached the Light Probe group onto it (Rendering > Light Probe Group). At this point, I was unaware of what was about to happen. I clicked “Add Probe” and It added it to the scene, with the glossy blue ball unpositioned, I went to position into the correct place. However, when I moved the Probe on the Y axis is crashed my laptop… Yes! Completely crashed it! I couldnt open task manager (CTRL + ALT + DEL) My mouse froze and I couldnt move it and I couldn’t even ALT + F4 Unity to close it. This is a severe problem that needs addressing because it forces me to terminate my laptop with the power button leaving my Unity3D Scenes unsaved. I tried this a second time because the first time I wasnt aware that the problem and error was caused by the Light Probes. I had to shutdown again after following the steps to try and fix it (Task Manager etc.)
Can somebody else try this using Unity3D 4.0.0 and follow my steps to see if it happens to them or it could just be me.
FIX.
