Renders come out black

Hi guys,

My maya software renders are coming out black. I've only rendered with the default lights, I also tried it with some lights, but no luck

Help!

Hi James,



Are there any errors/warnings in the job logs that might indicate that there is a problem with the render? If you’re not sure what to look for, feel free to post a full log from a task that produced a black frame and we can take a look.



Another thing you can try is to render from the command line on one of your render nodes that is producing a black frame. Use the same command line arguments that Deadline is using, which are printed out in the job log. If the frame still renders black, then the problem would appear to be unrelated to Deadline. If you give this a try, let us know the results!



Cheers,
