I know nothing about Houdini, but what I would try first is remove objects
from the scene bit by bit to find the offending one (I would guess it's
the fur object(s).
Once you have identified the problematic object see if there is anything
you can change on it (like re-export from Maya with a slightly different
hair count or segment count, or by splitting it up in two separate
objects/hair clumps.
At least that's what I'd start with in case of total lack of other hints
at the actual source of the problem.
Good luck!
Hey guys
I'm in deep shit right now.
Tomorrow is deadline and my scene refuses to render.
I'm rendering fur on characters animated in maya.
All animations gets exported as alembic files for me to fur and render
in houdini.
I've rendered 9 shots with almost no problems, but the last shot just
keeps crashing.
Where do I start trouble shooting?
Here is what I've done so far
I've changed the sampling up and down.
Changed the tile size up and down by factors of 8
I've changed the tile order
I've even rebuilt the scene from scratch based on a scene that renders
fine.
I've created new cameras and deleted the alembic cameras.
This is my first "real" job in houdini, and allot is riding on this. I
had to convince allot of people that they can trust me to deliver this
job in houdini.
Help my dumb-ass please!!
