No shaders in render, just greyscale.

[livemixlove]

Hi there,

When I render with just 3Delight, everything looks good.

However, if I render with Miarmy Render Preview, it renders without any shaders. It just is black and white (greyscale) in the render view, without any transparency, materials, etc. Lights can have colors, but not materials.

I have set
DL_SHADERS_PATH to C:/Program Files/3Delight For Maya/shaders

I have restarted my computer a number of times, I have the env variables set for both user and system.

No there no errors on the console.

Any tips for how to fix this?

Thanks

Hi livemixlove,

There are some shaders in the path:
<Miarmy Install Place>/Basefount/Miarmy1.5/shaders, also the source code, would you please find them and copy them to the 3delight shader path,

of course you can compile them too ~~

also would you please check the "Output Window" for information, there should list the problem messages

Thank you for your feedback,
Best,

I don't get anything on the output window. It does not show any errors.

Hi livemixlove,

Sorry for bringing inconvenience,

Would you please try to export a RIB and send it to us to check what is happen, we believe it maybe some shader problem,

Please:
1. setup frame range and export directory in Miarmy > Render Global
2. then Miarmy > Renderman Extra > Render Batch to Rib File

we'll immediately check for you!!

Thank you! have a nice day!
