So I’m having this problem with arnold which i’ve ran into several times by now but still haven’t figured out how to solve. Once I introduce certain elements in my scene arnold just refuses to render the scene, I thought it was a shader issue, the asset having mental ray or other shader that arnold doesn’t accept, but when i cover the asset with an aishader arnold still refuses to render the scene when i hide the asset it does so it has to do something with the asset and not with the shading of it. What I am asking is is there a proper course of action to figure out what is going wrong i.e. like a log which explains what the error is that i should consult. Please help me or direct me to a forum on arnold because the solid angle website doesn’t really address this issue, thanks in advance.

In render globals there is diagnostic tab, you can switch verbosity level to debug and try to find issue in output window. Be careful to switch it back- with complex scene this will increase ass generation time dramatically.
Thanks, really had overseen that possibillity, i am sure it is only related to this scene as i have been trying to render all the assets seperatly and succesfully. I will be getting back if this is the sollution. Again thanks very much.
P.S. love your site has been really handy, keep it up you’re a life saver.
