instal Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 I got a question...i been playing around with houdini apprentice version, i picked it up at siggraph, and i really like it. I have went through most of the tutorials that came on the cds, and i have went through some that i have got from side-fx's website. I am having troubles on this eyeball tutorial that is made for 5.0. I have the eyes made, and all the correct networks made with all the textures and materials hooked up correctly...i believe. For some reason it is not rendering my materials. In the viewport, it shows all my materials correctly, the iris and the veins and the pupil all show up, but not when i render it. It just renders grey material. I have went through the snowman tut and the materials and textures worked just fine...is there some setting somewhere to make materials renderable? any info would help...thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaJuice Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 Hey instal, if you're using Materials to texture your object, you wanna use mantra3 (older version of mantra) to render. But if you used Shops to texture your objects, you should use mantra (newer version of mantra,aka vmantra) to render. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
