I have this warning all the time, saying that the maxwell image and the png image are not being saved.
Any idea?

I can think of two possibilities:
- wrong path
- no disc space

[choo-chee]

use only english fonts with no special characters

I am sure there is 100GB of free space, so this is not the problem
The path is as follows:

"W:/Trabajos/en_curso/Rw/scenes/C12"

And the complete warning is as follows:

WARNING:-IMAGE "W:/Trabajos/en_curso/Rw/scenes/C12" not saved
WARNING:-IMAGE "W:/Trabajos/en_curso/Rw/scenes/C12" not saved
WARNING:-IMAGE "W:/Trabajos/en_curso/Rw/scenes/C12" not saved
WARNING:-IMAGE "W:/Trabajos/en_curso/Rw/scenes/C12" not saved
WARNING:-IMAGE "W:/Trabajos/en_curso/Rw/scenes/C12" not saved

I am having this problem shown in the Maxwell Render Console.
I have asked this in the Maya Pluggin Forum, becausse I am using Maya 7
I have never benn able to get it right, I get that WARNING FOREVER, and have to save images manually.
I am working on a network.
Any idea????
Perhaps a bug with maya 7?

If it does turn out to be a Maya 7 problem, just save out your mxs file, open mxcl, load the mxs, then set your paths and render.

[Bubbaloo]

Also, have you tried using a UNC path instead of a mapped drive path?

[Mihnea Balta]

There's no extension on that file name, so Maxwell doesn't know what format to save to. What are your output path and format settings in Maya?

[Fernando Tella]

Yep, specify if the file is .jpg or .png or whatever you want.

I guess the node can reach that location through network without problems.

[Ernesto]

In the Rendering setings windowm there is a box where you can select the type of ile.
I have chosen PNG in that box, but have not writen the .png in the filname box, assuming that it should be redundant.
Now I will try puting PNG in both boxes to see what happens.
