Hi

I am trying to run off an image and I keep getting this error message:-


== Render settings ==

maximum desired time: 0h 1m 0s
threads: 6

target sampling level: 25

e is a null image
[0h 1m 0s] of [0h 1m 0s] , current sampling level : 9 QImage::smoothScale: Image

SUCCESS: Render successfull


Close this window or the frame buffer to End Session...

The render preview is blank at the end.

Any ideas would be greatfully appreciated.

Hi Neil,

strange result...

Would you like to share your scene... then i could
testrender it myself...

cheers

I think I found out what it was, there were some maya shaders that Maxwell didn't like. Once I changed them all the MXshaders it rendered fine.

Cheers

OK I have had the same error message twice in the last couple of days, thought it might have been some mental ray nodes leftover from old scene files, but I made a scene from scratch, and I'm getting the error message, anyone have any ideas, or the same problem?

edit: after further investigation it seems it renders only with a resolution of 320x240, change it any higher and the error message appears.
