First time a few years ago, it was a real head scratcher because it's hard to diagnose when it just looks like iRay broke down. But nowadays when it goes full black and the camera is not stuck in geometry, I always look for passthrough stuff in the scene that can "eat the light" before it reaches the camera (especially if the camera is inside said stuff), glass, true volumetrics etc.Wow. How long did it take you to figure that out? Thanks a lot!
It's still frustrating that it happened because light from the many emissives in that scene should always reach the camera along the shortest direct path.
