Spacer Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Hi, Newly purchased 8.5 with Maxwell 3.2.1.0. In a file which rendered fine under previous versions, I get "Scene contains error. Review log for details" message when I hit (not network) render using Maxwell. I am getting messages in my log at network render with FZ 8.5.0.2 concerning non-safe characters. i think it mght be that I have a "+" sing in a folder name containing my references "Materials + Textures" is the folder nam enad everything is is therE. It was never an issue with network rendering before. but now if I change this to "Materials_Textures", I guess i will have to fix every path of revery mxm and all their textures.. days of work!! Is there not a way to automate this? much thanks- or if it only says "WARNING" and not "ERROR", does it mean that this isn't my rendering problem? Peter a quote from the log: "52 Notice Resource Mngr File Search (MXM Ref'd File) C:\Maxwell Prefs\MATERIAUX + TEXTURES\TEXTURES\Bord Granite 1024 x 1024 bmp2.jpg53 Notice Resource Mngr File Status File on previous line FOUND at existing path54 *WARNING* Resource Mngr File Status WARNING: File path above contains non-safe characters.

pylon Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Hi Peter, You do not need to correct the WARNING - level filepath issues if they are not causing you any trouble. You do need to correct ERROR - level issues, however. There are errors of lines 155 and 159 of your log. When you select Extensions > Maxwell Render > Log, all lines with errors are highlighted (blue by default) so you can find them easily. Regarding changing multiple paths at once, there is no need to do this manually. Just use the Resource Manager to add resource search paths and any re-linking will be done for you automatically.

pylon Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 The Resource Manager interface is located within Maxwell Project Settings. (Select Extensions > Maxwell Render > Project Settings...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
