VFB No Longer Shows Up

[daeschri]

The frame buffer no longer comes up when clicking show frame buffer. Shift-Right clicking and choosing the buffer doesn't work. Hitting render to disk doesn't seem to do anything either. It's all been working fine till today. This has happened in the studio at random too but now it's happening at home with my personal license. I'm using houdini 18.0.460 and Build 4.30.03 for 18.0.460. Is there a way to reset the VFB like there is in maya?

Hi daeschri , is "Reset VFB Position" in V-Ray ROP helped. Can you be more specific about your setup, OS and exact V-Ray build. You could check the V-Ray build by starting a render in an empty scene, no matter if it will render something or will throw error about missing camera, and check VFN_BUILD variable.

I didn't know the Reset VFB Position was added. Thank you for that.

Well I feel silly. It turns out my issue was I could not reach the license server. Once It connected again it was fine and the frame buffer would show and everything worked normally.. But now I know about the Reset Buffer which I missed from Maya.
