Render Selection To Texture not saving any file

[Anonymous]

Hi, student and im trying to use the Utilities, Render Selection to Texture but its not saving anything to selected folder and no error message. I tried it in the maya 2017 and there its working but in 2008 version its not working for me.

Maybe somebody knows what im doing wrong.

Hi @Anonymous

Unfortunately I do not have access to the 2008 version of Maya. I'd highly recommend you upgrade to a more recent version of Maya like 2017/2018 where this tool works.

Please let me know if you need any more assistance!

Hi!

Try a reset of your preferences.
Rename the folder prefs in folder 2018 to something like prefs_backup, or to reset everything, the folder 2018 to 2018_backup (or even the maya folder to maya_backup). Maya creates new folders (don't copy preferences from previous Maya versions). Detailed at:
