Hello,
I have just installed Maya 2024 and have been trying to use the Arnold that comes with it, but it simply does not render. While I can set up my lights and see everything in the RenderView, when I hit the "Play" arrow it quickly flashes a percentage bar, and then is completely stuck. The "Stop" square is still there and it's not frozen, but simply nothing is happening.
Things to note:
-Arnold Render Logs are always completely empty
-I have frequently checked and re-checked the render image output location and no images are made.
-mtoa.mll is Loaded and Autoloaded (Arnold Plug-in)
- I've tested this with both my current project as well as a fresh project + scene with just a cube and an Arnold SkyDome Light
-I have reset all of the render settings to Maya's default
-No errors appear in the Script Editor or anywhere else from what I can tell.
I've attached the new project file I've been testing with (the one with just the cube and light) though I'm not sure how much that will show.
Please let me know if you have any ideas!
