Hello:
my process for starting multilight is:
1. start maxwell render from z
2. once rendering starts in plugin, hit stop button.
3. turn on multilight and then hit start.
This is not reliable for me. Some times it re-renders (not often), other times my hard drive gets very active but the rendering does not start. The whole system slows down. I have waited 5 to 10 minutes but nothing.
I know the MXI file can get quite large— should I wait longer?
typing ~ml in maxwell command line at start of render crashes maxwell.
Are there easier, more reliable ways to do this?
Thanks,
Gary
