Thanks Eric- works a treat, and proves that there is quite an overhead with
the alembic properties - scrubbing is much faster on the plotted geometry.
Unfortunately the problem with the geometry persists - I get instant
crashes when opening a renderregion :/

I will see if I can fix it by dotxsi or fbx IO.

Crashing with unknown error message.

2015-03-19 Thread Morten Bartholdy
I am rendering alembic files with a number of passes with material
overrrides. It has worked fine so far, but after setting up the last passes
on one particular scene it fails to render the new pass, crashing on the
farm. Softimage2013SP1,   SiToA 2.8, Crate for Alembic IO, RoyalRender.

This is the error:


R93794| HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.8.9) thread 2408:

Does anyone here what this error might be?

I've had that error before, and was something with arnold crashing, the
alembic files were not really the cause of the error, and I only had it in
the farm also, so maybe check your configuration for arnold on the farm, I
can't remember exactly what was the culprit but it happened when I upgrade
arnold. Here is also a thread that talks about this.
