arnold-error.jpgHello!! I'm trying to learn textures, and have been importing my textures from mudbox. I haven't had too many issues, except now when I get to the 'car body' portion of my project, I'm getting this error, and the colors/textures look really dim in the renderview. I honestly am so lost, i'm really new to this! Thanks!
Can you increase the Arnold log verbosity? There will be more info about the maketx job in the script history.
I'm answering to this because I found myself in the exact same problem.
In my case cryptomatte aovs didn't show up and arnold wasn't able to convert textures to .tx
USING MAYA 2019.2 and arnold 4.0.4
I managed to solve this but it took me a while.
I did the following.
-uninstall ALL versions of maya.
-uninstall ALL plugins related to maya.
-manually remove all maya and solidangle folders:
program files, programfiles x86, appdata, programdata, users/XXX/maya, c:/solidangle
-I also did a search for maya on disk :C/ and deleted all installation related files I could find.
-cleaned the registry with Ccleaner after all that.
_reinstalled maya and arnold.
Now it is working for me.
I know it is a hassle to do all that. But I really didn't want to format my pc. so it is worth it.
