Hi,

Got some weird Problem with mental Ray batch started with a .bat file.
The file is big (70mb) and is rendered with Final Gather.
we Render packages by 5 frames for better memory usage.
The first 5 frames render fine, but when the next job comes, it hangs.
In the command line you can read: images can be found bla bla
but it won't start the second job. It just hangs.
If you try to abort it askes: Do you want to abort (J/N) - when pressing no it continues as normal with the next job. But it won't continue the render without user interaction. WHY ??

hope somebody can help

the batch command is as follows

mayabatch -batch -file c:\thefile -proj c:\theproject -command "settAttr mentalrayGlobals.startFrame bla setAttr mentalrayGlobals.exportverbosity; mrBatchRender_v5;"

thanks

phil
