Fumefx Crashes Scenes w. VDB

[Asger]

When stopping a fumefx simulation that is set to simulate vdb caches, maya crashes and you are unable to open that scene again in maya 2018. I've tested this in a clean scene with nothing than a simple source. It works fine when chaching fxd files, but if you simulate vdb it crashes if you decide to stop the simulation.

software versions:
Maya 2018
FumeFx 4.1.1
Linux

I have done further testing, and it appears that when loading a scene in maya 2018 which contains a FumeFX grid with VDB caches in it, the scene crashes. Is this something that you can confirm is happening with your build?

I'm still using FumeFX 4.1.1 in Linux
