View Full Version : Fur rendering
MikeRhone 08-19-2003, 10:42 PM Im having a lot of problems with rendering fur. Im getting this error and I cant seem to fix it:
// Error: The fur image file "E:/FurryTest/fur/furImages/FurRigAug19.0000.iff" can't be opened. Fur won't be composited. //
I have tried creating new fur files in advanced fur Rendering to no avail. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem? Im pulling my hair out over this.

you probably deletet your Polar map. When you paint Fur the map texture is created. If you deletet it, its this error I think. This is very bad becouse you lost you painted values. Best is repaint the atributes and dont delete files :) Also check if you have "keep files"... or what in Fur attributes. this keep these textures when you open next time so you dont loose anything.

OK
I have found out this much:
I cannot re-import the fur OR redo the fur from within the scene. Even if I delete all of the fur nodes within the scene I still get the error:
// Error: The fur image file "E:/FurryTest/fur/furImages/FurRigAug19.0000.iff" can't be opened. Fur won't be composited. //
Maya wont re-create the fur image file, no matter what settings I apply.
--Still trying...

thats the problem. Maya dont remake the file. You should open Fur description and open Polar map which you are missing and delete it manualy. Then you can change with slider. If the slider of that attribute is working this means it has no file texture so you can paint again. As I said If you delete of didint keep these files you cant undo or reopen it :( This is very dangerous operations. You must keep in mind some rules.:rolleyes:
