When the model name contains a ";" symbol, the Cryptomatte mask cannot be loaded

I have uploaded the video and file of the problem

Imo, it's always a good idea to avoid special characters, even spaces whenever possible. It's ok in the outliner but I think you can expect an error if your object ";" is being read by some code, which it is when you run crypto matte. I think special characters are usually called operators but I'm not a programmer so would love a breakdown from a chaos dev as to why it doesn't work. Ultimately there is not really any good reason to use them. Like most render farms will reject textures or files with special characters for the same reason.

But he did generate Cryptomatte, but the vfb mask couldn't load, so I think it might be a bug

Hello, all,

Thank you for your activity! There is an issue when using the cryptomatte Render element as mask with interactive render. However, the problem can be avoided with a bucket renderer. I understand it is not convenient, but it is still an option.


Cheers

After switching to bucket mode, I still can't load Cryptomatte

Of course, clean your special charters. You can check it by adding it manually in the text field and seeing what message you can get.

Yes, currently only this method is available

Nope, you can use pick options as well.
