// Maya exited with status -1073740791

Hi, I am trying to batch render a simple maya scene, but mental ray starts then immediately says it's finished. In the mayaRenderLog.txt I see the following error: // Maya exited with status -1073740791 I've searched for this error and found nothing anywhere. Can anyone tell me what this means? At present I cant batch render anything at all in any renderer which makes the software pretty useless. I've tried using the new render layer system and i've tried turning back on the legacy system and its the same issue. Thanks for any advice

What Maya are you using for your renders?  can you PM me a link with the render logs?  (by your description, It sounds like are using Maya 2016 Ext 2).  Yet this exact error code was something we used to get with Maya 2013 and was fixed for Maya 2014 +.. is this an older file with any legacy scripts or history attached to it?  Are you using any specific commands for your Batch?  or are you running this via the Maya UI?

This could also be just a random error Maya could be giving you, as I have run into an issue with the new Render Setup when using Mental Ray, in which if I have not created a Render Layer and have not created any Collections for it and add an object from your scene to it.  Then the issue will go away.  There seems to be something with batch render and Mental Ray on the New Maya 2016 Ext2 SP1.. Please try doing what I just suggested to see if you can get Maya to  render.  I look forward to your reply.. Thank you

After doing a teamviewer session, we realized that there where some specific scripts within the Prefs folder for the user that where causing Maya to not find the correct path for Mayabatch.exe and causing the renders to fail.  after deleting the User prefs, and creating new ones, Maya rendered via batch with no issues.  All good.

Hi Guys

I'm Andrea Olivieri, pipeline developer in Rainbow CGI Rome.

We have the same issue with our Maya batch job in deadline.

I try to delete the User preference and make a new one starting maya.

But the problem it's the same.

Have you got some tips?
