can't render swf animation.
 

Playing with Maya 6.0 here at school since I don't have the version at home that exports SWF files and I can't get it to work.

Rendering with Maya Vector? yes
Frame/Animation Ext: name.ext(vector Multi Frame)
-also have tried name(vector Multi Frame)
Image Format: Macromedia SWF (swf)
Start and End frames are 1 and 48
Renderable Objects is "All" and I also tried "Active"
My Path is to a folder on the Desktop

I can try to render single frames and that works fine, but I want the 1-48 frame animation. I tried Batch Render obviously, but the script editor says "Rendering Complete" even though it doesn't create my SWF. I get this black file for a split second, but then it disappears. o.O

What could be the problem?

bah.....

stupid stupid Maya...

You have to save the scene in order for it to do it.... -_-

nearly an hour of trying to figure this out searching on google, searching through help docs, and using trial and error... ugh...
