Mantra Renders black once I build a scene


Recommended Posts

Goodmorning everyone!

So, my problem is t he following.

Everytime Im building a scene, no matter if complicated or simple, my mantra output comes out black.

If I open a fresh Houdini scene. Place a box, light, camera and the same mantraROP it renders just fine.

However if I make even a simple billowy smoke preset the render comes out black.

Any ideas?

Houdini 16.0.504 Indie

Well...Houdini 16.0.504.20 (dude) was a very buggy release. Go ahead and pull down a more recent daily build. Part of being a Houdini user is constantly upgrading.

I just tried a simple sphere, Pyro billowy smoke, a light and a camera and Mantra rendered fine on H16.0.632.

I never pay attention to the new production builds and its lame that I dont.. 

I updated it and now it works fine! Thanks!
