  • Vanishing object in rendered sequence - fine one frame at time - PLEASE help !

    Ok this is really strange but I'm stuck.

    I've imported about 140 OBJ files, and have had to animated them turning on one frame, then off the next as they are a sequence of things. (yes, that was a tedious job).
    They automatically get put into a group upon import, and I thought sod it, I'll just leave them in those and animate the group visibility per frame for each thing.
    So when I rendered a still, or used the RT quickly, they seemed ok. Although if I scrubbed to the next frame when using RT, it wouldn't update the meshes, first sign of strangeness.
    Then when I sent the file to the renderfarm, nothing was there, just black except one the object I built in Maya.

    I'm not accusing the OBJ's because they are fine in the viewports, and don't do anything weird, and this is specifically happening with the render, so I'm guessing it's probably vray ?


    Please help !

    There is an option in the V-Ray settings how to handle hidden objects; you can try the "Always" option to see if it helps.
