Render problem

Hi there!
For the first time using Maxwell I got a strange problem when I render, not during FIRE, just when I hit Render. After a couple of SLs, half the preview scene turns black and at the main render black bands appear! Have no idea what that could be, the only "strange" thing I did is using Maxwell Sea for the first time. So, could maybe someone help me do this render without any black bands?
Here´s what I mean: http://imageshack.com/a/img707/3002/ph09.jpg.

I´m using C4DR13 on Windows 7 and Maxwell 3 of course....

Many thanks in advance....

This is a bug which occurs rarely and in my experience was caused/exposed when using a maximum 255 value in transmittance. You can see that colourful noise in the cockpit glass on your render, try turning that geo off and see if the problem dissapears. I doubt its related to maxwell sea.

If that doesnt cure it, turn other things off until you find the culprit.

You´re quite right! Replaced the canopy glass with an AGS material and it seems the problem is solved! Thank you so much for the quick reply and help, really do appreciate it!!!
