  • Ranch / Maya / Vray

    Hi all,

    If some of you have some experience with Maya/Vray projects rendered at Ranchcomputing, it would be nice if you could share some infos.
    We will be sending a quite big project soon and I'm especially worried for the IES profiles that we are using. Do you organise them specially, force the path to somewhere ?
    Any other hints to avoid beginner mistakes ?

    best regards,

    Olivier

    Dont have any info regarding Ranchcomputing but we did have problems with having 2 different IES lights in the scene. Every time we opened the scene all the lights would take on just one of the IES lights ignoring the fact there were 2 types so had to update every time.

      Is it possible to get me that scene so that we can debug it?

        Hi,

        I've tried to reproduce the problem, but I couldn't.
        I've tried a simple scene with two IES lights (2 profiles) both in-maya rendering and maya batch.
        Both worked fine, so I'm waiting for a scene, where it breaks to further debug the problem.

          I will get the scene for you later tonight (UK time). It would be a very large scene so may have to delete some stuff, will double check later.

            Everytime I had problems with IES profiles was when a project was moved from a disk to another.

              thats strange, i always use the project structure for everything, and for example i put like ies in data dir of the project structure and everything works ok, just make sure that the paths r not absolute...

              cheers
