Al,

 

Downloaded the most recent update, JL27, and when I went to run a small portion of an animation I received the following error:

 

"Cannot open file: 'C:\Users\CSTAPL~1\AppData\Local\Temp\nXt_batch\nxt_anim_file.txt'"

 

Any thoughts?

  • We posted a new release, JL29, with the fix for this regression.

     

    It can be downloaded at: http://www.renderplus.com/php/download_links.php

  • Maybe it's something in the model...

    Could you make a little model that fails to make an animation and send it to me at:

    rich.hart@renderplus.com

     

  • There is no file in the nXt_batch folder named "nxt_anim_file.txt."  There is an "nxt_anim_params_0000" though.
  • Once in your user folder, if you drill down in Explorer, into ...\AppData\Local\Temp\nXt_batch can you find that file nxt_anim_file.txt?

    If so is it Read Only or something?

    Or is some intermediate folder missing?

    When I type that into Windows Explorer it does find my user folder.

  • I just wanted you to verify that by using WIndows Explorer.

    The real name of the folder might be "C:\Users\CSTAPLETON" or something, using your full username. Explorer would substitute the real name for the short 8 character name "CSTAPL~1" and throw an error if it really didn't exist.

    The folder changes to where I am trying to save it.  The "CSTAPL~1" folder does not exist.  That's why I tried changing the folder to my desktop, which also did not work.  The two images below display the errors. 

     

    With Batch Setting as standard:

    2506646086?profile=original

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    With Batch Setting as Custom and folder selected as Desktop

  • Is it still the same folder in the error message:

    C:\Users\CSTAPL~1

    If so, if you put that folder into the Windows Explorer Box as below:

    2506646037?profile=original

    and hit enter, does it find that folder?

    I tried the animation on several different models, and received the same error.  I can do still images just fine, just not animations.

    So is it just this one model that you can't run the animation?

    Can you render the model at all?

  • PS: GO HOOSIERS!
