scene render error

(1/4) > >>

Arik_the_Red:
I get the attached scene render error after I go to render a movie, set it up to save, and click the final command to begin rendering.

It seems to occur when I add a second object to the scene. The scene elements include a static/untouched object, and an object that is set to grow and shrink in size as the time moves along. The error does not occur when there is only one object - whether it is just the non-growing or the growing/shrinking object.

The file was created using v97d. I have tried opening the file in 97d, and v96, and the error occurs in both cases. I have tried to re-download v97d, but it still occurs.

Does anyone have a clue as to how to get around this error?

hihosilver:
Perhaps try creating a new file, import the objects and redo the animation?
That's the best I can do, that's a very odd error.

lynn22:
Your screenshot is for Front view, do you render your animation in Camera view ?

Also, have you tried rendering your animation as a series of images instead of an .avi file ?

Kubajzz:
I've already seen this error message... It basically means that Anim8or is unable to write data to the avi file because the file is being used by another process.

It usually happens when you abort the render (or when the renderer crashes) and then you retry rendering using the same file name. There is probably a bug in Anim8or, the program still thinks the .avi file is in use although the original rendering session is over.

Using a different file name should help...

Also keep in mind that re-starting the computer solves 90% of all problems ;)

Arik_the_Red:
Thanks for the tips. Not sure what happened, but it's not doing it now.
