Quote from your last update to the Material Converter
Do you want to redefine your correction?added limits warning for the convert d3d to yafaray materials to help prevent crashes - limits to processing 200 materials at a time, 3 runs for a total of 600 is somewhat safe and 4 runs for a total of 800 may or may not crash, anything over 800 guaranteed crash
BTW...the D3D Material Converter has a link to your website.After all of the scene materials are converted to D3D Shaders, you can convert some or all of the scene materials to YafaRay Materials.
From the YafaRay4tS aspect in the D3D Material Converter, choose to check or uncheck Selected Only, and select the Convert button.
The complex nature of YafaRay materials limits the number of scene items with YafaRay materials applied to about 800 objects.
I am getting mixed results with the Mesh Model Processing scene when testing the above workflow.Edit: animation page chm file has "Rendering with the main view in Workspace and new Model will crash trueSpace" I don't think that's true anymore.
First test after rendering, closing the new Model view, tS crashed.
If I switched the new Model view to Workspace first before closing it, no crash.
It is difficult to get tS in a un crash state. Simply resetting the default context does not work.
Fairly sure it has to due with Model's save state and also Workspace's lack of synchronization with Model.
Hence when switching the new Model view to Workspace first before closing it.

Last but not least, I made a significant discovery when rendering an 2 min image this morning.
While it was rendering, I clicked on the Display, it disappeared, and when it finished rendering, the Bitmaps Base library was opened. This has always been an issue, but I have discovered a solution by changing it to a Clickable Bitmap.
Also added a WinId to the OwnedBy attribute to it's panel frame.
Changed the TIFF loader in the tSDisplay and YafaRay4tS Setup library too.
Here is a scene you can try with the changes.
