Render Selection to Texture | Crashing

[tsimonato]

Hi guys,

I hope you all doing well.

I am trying to bake a texture + shading into a map using the "Render Selection to Texture", and maya is crashing. I am using a simple scene with one light, a sphere and a floor, it goes until ~5% and then it crashes.

I am using:

MtoA 4.2.1.1 / Arnold Core 6.2.0.1

Maya 2020.2

Windows 10

Have someone had this problem before? Am I missing something?

I am attaching a few screenshots of the process and the result.

Thank you in advanced

What does the log file say when it crashes? Can you upload the scene somewhere for us to test?

Hey Lee Griggs, thank you for your prompty response.

Here it is the log.

Thank you so much

Hello,

any update on that?
Thank you all

[saleemarani]

Hi,

I am encountering the same issue.  When I am trying to bake Light maps using Render to Texture, the file crashes at 5%.  Usually, I used to bake with the same settings, but suddenly this crashing thing happens for the past few days.  Please share if you have any solution.

Thanks all. 

[thiago.ize]

Were you able to report the crash to CER and if so do you have the CER report ID so we can investigate why it crashed? Alternatively, can you share a scene (the simpler the better) that crashes?

[saleemarani]

Thanks for getting back to me. I am attaching a simple file. I can render
using Arnold. But when I try to bake light maps using
Arnold-Utilities-Render to Texture, the file crashes immediately at 5%.

Any solution for this will help me greatly, as my nature of job is to bake
lightmaps to use in Vizrt.

Thanks once again for your support.



Regards,

Saleema
