one item

Its trying to load an image that it cannot find; [C:\Documents and Settings\fpedrogo.ASGVIS\My Documents\VrayRhino_Materials\Architecture\Untitled-1.jpg" failed to load] Is that image being used for lighting? It also mentions a range of frames, so verify that all animation settings (on or off) are in agreement.

Since I move from computer to computer quite a bit, I always copy ALL map images into the same folder as the Rhino .3DM file.

Re: Trouble with Rendering

So I’m having a very similar problem with a “fpedrogo” material in my scene, but for the life of me I cannot find where it is. Is there an audit or some other way of isolating this thing and remapping it or deleting it? I’m using the latest VfSU and I’ve gone though all of my materials and all of the bump maps and everywhere I can think to look, any ideas?

Re: Trouble with Rendering

I went through each of my materials again. I found the image referenced under my reflection-->fresnel-->perpendicular slot.

Guess I didn’t look hard enough :stuck_out_tongue:

Good to know that you found the missing texture. Let me know if you still need the texture, maybe I can find it on my hard drive.
