Hi Guys, I am trying to render a pyro sequence with mantra using pretty modest/standard settings. Here is the tutorial I am following if it helps in any way (it's Russian but it can still be followed): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFrg9XDMwrA I am using Houdini 13 on Windows 8 on i7 Haswell with 16GB Ram (Not Ideal, I know). However, there is a 'hit or miss' situation going on where sometimes randomly I will get an error mid-batch render saying that there is an 'Error saving geometry for:' and 'Error loading geometry...'from stdin'. So far this has happened with my volume light and now with my pyro material. I don't have that much space on my Primary C: SSD drive (about 1.5gb), however this doesn't seem to be utilised during render so I don't think this the problem. During render the CPU is almost completely utilised and the ram usage is around 50-60%. If anyone could shed any light on this situation it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. P.S. Sorry for the huge screenshot!
