I have a snowflake simulation using particles in Maya. A snowflake image has been attached to make the particles appear as snowflakes. When I render current frame in Render view everything shows up fine, I can see the snow flakes. However when I render sequence the snowflakes don't show up? Any fix for this? I need to render 120 frames of the snow falling down. I'm using Arnold inside Maya to render.
My guess is you are trying to render with Arnold. Yet your particle system is Maya Legacy or nParticles. If you can see them in the viewport correctly then you should try rendering using Maya Hardware or Maya Software.
But if you want to use Arnold then: model a 3 D snowflake, apply snow texture, then use that as an instance object . Then Arnold will render it.
I have the same issue here.
When I render an nParticle object by using Arnold renderer, only the current frame can render particles.
It disappears when I use the render sequence option.
