i love these errors don't you?
you get this because 'render' is not a command you can use (on anyones computer, not just yours)
to be able to use this command you need to add stuff to your class path.
I assume you're still using XP (works the same with vista anyway)
Go
Control Panel > System > Avanced tab > Enironment Variables (button)
A new dialog appears with two box things (i forget what they are called)
One should be called "System variables"
Scroll down until you see the variable "Path", double click and add
Code:
C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2008\bin;
to it.
Well... add the address of the bin folder of your maya directory and type semicolon ; after it
and you will be able to use the command "render" from any location, because in that bin folder is the render.exe
Maya adds itself to the classpath when it installs so i have no idea why it's not there for you.....
if that fails then you can't use the exe files in the bin folder from the command line :p
that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"
Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D
