I have two machines a desk top and a lap top. I have a project of a pedell trike I made about a year ago. I can set up a little animation and it batch renders out on both machines no problems. I have made three new projects with animations and I can hit the icon on the film cam to render out odd frames no problems on the desk top but I can not do a batch render. I have spent hours cheecking I have the same settings as the trike but no luck, it will not batch render. If I save a copy of the same project to the lap top, I just go into Maya on the lap top set the project to the folder I want the files to go into and it batch renders without changing any other settings no prombles at all. Has anybody got any ideas to why this is. Thanks Trikeman
