Hey guys and girls,

I have a big problem with my batch renderer. I have made a animation in Maya 7.0. But when i render one frame there is no problem. But when i batch render, the renderer stops after a minute and says its done. But there is no way posible it is done that fast if one frame takes 12 minutes. The files that i have batch rendered are nowhere to be found either.
When i batch render it does nothing and says its done for no reason.

I have searched the forum for an awnser, but i have found non that helped me. Pleas help me i need this animation for a project.

Thank! user added image

Don't be afraid of what you can see, but be afraid of what you cant see.

DO ABOVE AND ALSO TRY THIS

in maya create a new PROJECT and set the set scene to the project and add the file into the scenes folder

this process creates folders for images ect the image folder should contain the rendered images

in render globals make sure frame/animation extension is set from single frames to say name.numder.extension

Now at SMU doing BSc 3D Computer Animation so its hard to get on here

shut off your software firewall. Didn't think about that did you?..... Norton and Maya dont mix.

some people do and some people dont. I have weired network settings here. Maya Batch requires some type of network vitual server to run and firewalls are known to stop it..... Sometimes.
