Hi guys, having a strange problem with a scene I'm working on here. Everything was working fine until suddenly I couldn't get any renders to go through, by which I mean, I press the render button in Maya, Maxwell opens, and does... nothing. My fans don't spin up, there's no increase in memory usage, it's almost like I just opened up the program and let it idle. If I open up a console window, the debug information stops at the 'Preprocessing additional parameters' step. If I hit the stop button, Maxwell hangs and I have to force quit.
Things got even weirder when I did some troubleshooting - the only way I can get a render through is when I have no emitters in my scene, but only a physical sky for lighting. Also, if I start a new scene I can render with emitters just fine - it seems only this specific scene is affected.
I'm using Maya 2015 on OS X 10.9, with the latest beta versions of both Maxwell and the Maya plug-in.
Thanks!
