Hi
I created one scene (sofa & pillows) and created a few arnold textures for it. I applied the C4D R23 take system and only changed the texture on each take, rest stayed all the same.
Now the render in the IPR works. And switches textures as i change the active take. If i render one single active take to the PV it works as well. If i render all takes to PV, it renders the first one and then is stuck saying generating TX files for hours on the second one. I tried AutoTX and manually created them in advance. But same result. They all work just great when rendered individually, but get stock when batched.
Anybody has an idea?
I was not able to reproduce the issue so far. Can you reproduce it with a simple scene or in this specific scene? Can you send me the scene with the textures or email it to support@arnoldrenderer.com?
Same here when I stop an animation rendering after a few frames. When I render the same animation it stucks at "generating 1 .tx file". After restart it works again.
Very confusing: Sometimes it works sometimes not...
Can you try generating all the tx files first? Then disable Auto-Tx and render with multiple takes.
By restart you mean restarting Cinema 4D, or just rerun the render? How easy is it to reproduce? How often does it happen? Like 50% of the time or less?
Hello, Peter.
Yes, I have to restart Cinema 4D.
It happens every time when I render with the exr-driver and didn't delete the previous rendered exr-files before I render again. So i did my test renderings without the driver. Then it only happens in 20 percent of all cases.
Thanks for the info, I could reproduce the issue. Working on a fix. Cheers.
I've got a fix. If you'd like to test it, please send an email to support@arnoldrenderer.com referreing to this thread. Thanks.
