Thank you Windows ... NOT!
Aug. 11th, 2011 10:33 amI was planning to post a render to Render A Day that I left cooking over night.
It's a complex scene and will take about 4 hours to render. When I checked on it this morning I was greeted with the log in screen for Win 7! WTF?!? I logged in a found that Win 7 did an automatic update and required a system restart. Damn! Well, Vue does automatic saves, so the scene wasn't lost, anyway I saved it before I started the render. I restarted Vue and it asked if I wanted to restore the last session. I said yes, hoping that it saved the "resume render" info. No dice.
So here I sit waiting for another scene to render, and I'll try the one I wanted to do tonight.
Funny thing is I've been having issues with that one scene. It rendered, but it had the e-on water mark, which it shouldn't have. So I had to shut down Vue and start over, then the above happened. Maybe someone is trying to tell me they don't want that scene rendered. :=/
