Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hi
any ides how i overcome this error:
ERROR: - object NEW_display-1/LCD is not an emitter but it has triangles with emitter material
</tt>

ERROR: - Render Failed

everything was fine , i rendered the scene and then wanted to change something and when i tried to render I got this message, cant recall what i changed ? maybe the size of the mxi imag of this material,tried to change back didnt work.

thanks in advanced,
yael

Hi yael,

Which version of the plugin are you using? (you can find it by scrolling to the top of the Log Viewer).

The error means exactly what it says - your object, 'NEW_display-1/LCD' has multiple Materials assigned to it, and one of them is an emitter. As it is indicating, Maxwell cannot render an object like this. You either need to remove the emitter material (select the Body, and toggle-off the multi-materials button in the Object Properties toolbar), or separate the object into two pieces, and apply the emitter separately.

Dear JD,
Thanks, i seperated it into a new object and it works fine. SW gives me such a hard time in regards of applying textures.
and yes i have the latest version.

thanks again,
yael
