When I try to batch render it seems to repeat the process over and over. It gets to 100% and then just starts all over.??? Does it do the render frame by frame and that is what it is showing or am I doing something wrong???

[alienscience]

I think that for maybe some reason it is trying to load all of my maya scenes???

[Phopojijo]

It does 1->100% of each frame... so it will end, after each and every frame is rendered...

Yes -- it DOES take that long. (~1-2 min/frame)

Now my batch render seems to have stopped and in the script editor it says nothing is happening. I clicked on the time slider and I think that is what might have caused the problem, is there anyway else I can check the progress of the render or just to check if is still going other than the script editor.

and then I get nothing

have you checked if you have enough disk space? at school we have very limited space on our personal drives, and I often run out... this causes all kinds of accidents when batch rendering.. not sure if this is the problem of course, but it COULD be.. worth testing, no?

[paldav]

when i have batch render going i invoke the task manager in windows and click performance,as i pass i can see at a glance the cpu usage going up to100% then dropping again between frames,so i know my render hasnt crashed

[alienscience]

ok, thx, I think your right. I think maybe my render crashed or something. Ill try it again.
