Re: [GD-Windows] MAX Crashes During Batch

[yogiwp <yo...@gm...>]

Well, unfortunately it's kinda late for this project to switch into such process.

I really was hoping for 'hacks' to get around this. Max crashes should not
stop the build.
One idea is to 'detect' if max hangs and kill it, continue the build, and then
repeat the build (because different build runs crash on different file).

I'm clueless on how to 'detect' max crashes. And I'm not even sure if this
is a good idea. Anyone?

Thanks.
