Grasshopper Display Error

Hi,

I'm using Rhino 5 x64 sr3 on Windows 7 and just downloaded the latest gh build. After doing so I keep getting a Grasshopper display error saying "Value was either too large or too small for an Int32" even when I run gh for first time in a blank rhino file. I click 'ok' and it never goes away.

I thought V-ray was causing the problem due to some C++ issue and unistalled it but it didn't solve anything so I now I don't know what I'm doing. Any suggestions would be great, please help!

attached is a screenshot of the error message

It's not V-Rays fault. This is an error purely inside Grasshopper.

Unfortunately the error message isn't very informative so it doesn't help me much. I've attached a special build of Grasshopper to this post. Please replace the grasshopper.dll on your system with this one.

Instead of catching the error, this build will crash. But, while it crashes there will be a file on the desktop called RhinoDotNetCrash.txt. I need you to send me this file.

The steps for this are:

Replace grasshopper.dll on your machine with the attached version. You can temporarily rename the old file to grasshopper.old if you want to reinstate it later.
Start Rhino
Run the Grasshopper command
The banner should say 0.9.0057, if it doesn't, you didn't replace the correct dll
As soon as the banner completes, you'll get the same error as before, click in OK
Rhino will now crash, showing the following window:
Do not press any buttons.
Go to your desktop and locate the file RhinoDotNetCrash.txt
Make a copy of this file.
Now click on the [Don't Send] button, the original RhinoDotNetCrash.txt will be deleted.
Attach the copied file here or send it to me by email.

Sorry to put you through all this, but it's the only way to track down this bug I think.

in the meantime I've downgraded gh to the previous one just to continue my work

Thanks. I'll let you know if I have something. It's actually a bit of a mystery crash. The text report didn't have much more information than the window....
