Description

System Information
Operating system: Windows 10
Graphics card: Intel HD 4600

Blender Version
Broken: Tested 2.93.7 and 3.0

I can reproducably crash blender. Interestingly I see this working in several tutorials about how to create a procedural wood texture, but on my system this crashes reliably.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Open Blender with the default scene.
Go to shading editor.
Add a noise texture.
Add a Voronoi texture.
Connect Fac of Noise Texture to Vector of Voronoi Texture.
Add a Bump node.
Connect Distance of Voronoi Texture to Height of Bump.
Connect Normal (output) of Bump to Normal (input) of Principled BSDF.
A few seconds later Blender is gone.

This doesn't crash here.

Please update GPU drivers if possible and check if this happens with latest alpha build from https://builder.blender.org/download/daily/

Blender crash log attached.

GPU drivers are at the latest version provided by Dell (the PC is a Dell Optiplex 3020).

Also happens with latest 3.1.

Hi, crash is related to intel driver. Installing the latest graphics driver may work for you: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/troubleshooting/gpu/windows/intel.html

GPU drivers are at the latest version provided by Dell (the PC is a Dell Optiplex 3020).

Could you please upload the system info file generate from the Help menu: Help → Save system Info

I have seen a crash report on Intel driver with similar stacktrace: T93014: Blender crash on combining textures (intel)

Perhaps we could merge this report into T93014

Unfortunately Dell delivers a customized driver for this model, and the generic Intel driver refuses to install because of this.

Hi, not sure what to do in that case.

@Richard Antalik (ISS), do you know how to handle this? Also, can this be merged into T93014?

I have seen some guides to install non-OEM drivers, so it should be possible. This probably won't resolve the problem as other report was tested with most recent drivers.

I think this looks very much like T93014, so should be safe to merge.

I found two "workarounds":

  1. There are ways to create procedural wood texture without Voronoi texture.
  2. I bought an Nvidia graphics card.

As a nice side effect of #2 rendering is now four times faster.
