Problems with rendering - files not showing

Anonymous
Not applicable

I've been trying to render using Arnold my particles, but despite having a project set, either using batch render or sequence render and maya stating it is rendering my files, it does not show up where it is set in or even anywhere in my computer. The render view also shows nothing. I found this out after rendering a scene for 3hours and coming back after a much needed sleep to nothing.

Also, it gives me errors such as invalid syntax very much often that stops me from seeing my possible render which the only solution is to close and open again. 

I can't render my file and its killing me. This is my assignment due on monday - if anyone can help me out I'd be so grateful. Here is a google drive link to my scene;

Hi!

 

This is maybe a path name problem, here it works (Maya 2017 update 4).

 

Using non-ASCII characters or whitespace in any folder name / file path, also as user/account name is not a good idea for Maya and some other applications.

 

Also make sure to set Evaluation Mode to "DG"

Hey
Did you render as png? Or iff files?
I've done the name with no spaces before and it still dint work. So you
think with Maya update 4 my problem will be solved?

Hi!

 

I didn't changed the file format of the file.

 

"I've done the name with no spaces before..."

??? i talked about all (and complete) file paths including all folder names, not just a single file name.

 

"So you think with Maya update 4 my problem will be solved?"

No, but you can try it.

Hi!

 

Check render settings in your file / Maya-scene, i didn't change the file format for tests (if i remember correct).
