I was a Maya user some years ago, I have never used Arnold but I know the basics of rendering. I have cheked the "show AOVs" box, which worked for some… -
March of Robots: Daily Render Attempt Recap
I've been posting these in a sketchbook thread but decided to put them here for easier viewing. I recently participated in an event called "March of robots", where artists attempt to make a robot everyday either for fun or experience. All robots are exploratory speed models made in Sketchup, UV unwrapped in 3dsmax, and… -
Re: Render Farms - Do you use them?
Why not specialize the hardware to the task? Mostly because big studios already have immense render farms made of CPUs that run renderers that work on CPUs. The costs of acquiring specialized hardware for rendering and paying the Solidangle guys to port 100% of Arnold to it are not really feasible. Bitcoin mining is a much… -
Maya batch render stops
Hey all, Super frustrating issue here. I've got a scene I'm trying to render out using Mental Ray and batch render. The batch render randomly stops, either 5 frames or 100 frames in. The # is always random. I've read i'm not the only one with this issue and the solutions brought forth haven't helped (disabling… -
Rendering alpha of a single object
Hello There. I've encountered a problem hoping you guys can help me. I have to render a 360 view of a car with 8 different colors. and I want to render the color changing part separately so I can render static (in the means of color) objects only once. So the best thing came to my mind was to use the invisible to camera… -
Re: 3D Studio Max gradient opacity on particals kills render time.
a few hndred thousand alpha tests and gathers causes this. IE partly transparent particles take a long time with a scanline renderer. The way to get around it would be with hard edged transparency, so you either see the particle or don't, but that will, of course, kill your soft smokey look. Other options: Upgrade your… -
Maya rendering length/extension error
Hey all, Trying to render out a simple 40 frame animation in Maya. Using Maya Software, I have the file extension to .tga. I've read to use multiple frame but it's greyed out. It's just a simple refrence animation but the 40 frames are taking 30 mins to render. I've never rendered in Maya before, but I know this can't be… -

Broken textures in Iray render?
Just a quick question about something that's bugging me though not really jeopardising my work. I'm painting an amulet in substance, which I modelled in Maya. I've created several models using this Maya/Redshift - SP workflow and not seen this issue before. I've painted some of the textures and wanted to check them out in… -
Anti-Aliasing Question on Mental Ray Renderer
Hello, I'm working on a model and have a question concerning the mental ray renderer. Please view the jagged lines near the arrow: Is there an option that tightens up the anti-aliasing more so that that those lines render smooth instead of with the jaggies? I am currently using the Mental Ray renderer with just a 4 lights…
