Edit: The `.exr` format supports rgb_h so you could give that a shot. You might have to do some research on the available image formats and what data types they support. But since you're new, you could just change the data type to `rgba 4x8`, its your standard 8bit image.

I changed the image format to a .exr with the data type RGBA (Float) 4x32 Bit (didn't get an error
so I guess it's a working Data type) but this seems not to be working in the render.
I also tried to set the Framebuffer to rgba (Byte) 4x8 but also this seemed not to be working but did not get the error as before.
Maybe the problem lies somewhere else?
Here is how it looks like in the viewport.
And here is what it looks like with an .exr or framebuffer to rgba (Byte) 4x8 (both get same results)

I'm new too in Maya... and I have quite the same Stylow's problem.
I need to export the motion vector pass (.exr), but I get this error:
// Warning: (Mayatomr.Scene) : output data type "n" not directly supported by image format exr, conversion performed by mental ray
Settings should be good, but the render preview looks strange, here's a screenshot:
Can you please help me?
Thanks
