Backburner ERROR - Camera **** defined but not found

 

why do i get this error, first time i ever got it (in backburner).

 

I have three Vray cameras set up and all of them are linked to seperate dummies and the dummies are animated.

 

does anyone have a clue?

 

thanx

I've had this issue before, the problem was because the camera was xref'ed into my scene I was rendering from. When I merged the cameras in it worked fine. Not sure if this is the case with you.

We had the same problem... it was the xref'd camera

I also had this problem when I converted standard camera to Vray cameras using LeLe's scripts, and then deleted the original standard camera.

sorry for only coming back this late. it's good to know not to xref cameras, but that was not the prob, as i only created xrefs late today. the problem was that the camera name(s) was to long. I shortened the name everything is A.O.K now.

 

now to fix the problem of the scene using 6gb to render a frame

 

I think backburner truncs the name when assingning the jobs.

 

thanx for the replies!

i had the same error but no xrefe'd cameras. I had spaces in my camera name i removed them and it seemed to fix the problem. i thought that was a unix thing??
