Render Elements not saving

[LukeC]

Hi guys, I've recently run into an issue where my render elements are not being saved out when rendering a job. I am using max 2012 and vray 2.1

 

This is a process I have done for many years and has worked fine however it seems to have ceased working. The passes are being calculated and are visible in the VFB.

 

It is possible for me to just manually save out these passes, however when I render a large number of views over the network it becomes a bit of a problem.

 

Has anyone else had this issue and found a way around it?

 

Cheers

Luke

Hi Luke,

 

I didnt see your post and just asked the same question and figured it out five minutes later. Just turn off VFB and youre good to go.

Hi Chris,

 

Cheers for the reply. I actually noticed this this other day and thats what I have been doing to get around it as well - although its just a bit of an annoyance all the same!

Hi Luke

 

I have just encounted this problem using max 2012. My problem is I have set up a number of render elements and have saved the locations all correctly, but when I come to render only the diffuse is showing. I have tried deactivating the VFB (As far as I know this is the rendered frame window, please correct me if wrong as I cannot locate?) but I am not getting any other elements to render. I have checked all locations are correct and all elements are active.

 

Any help right would be really helpful.

 

Thanks

 

Alex
