I am trying to do a short animation with a g8.1f that has both Breastacular & Golden Palace applied. When I render still images using Iray, no issues at all, and everything looks great. However, when I try to render even a 2-image Image Series, it was always failing on the second image with this error:
2023-07-27 11:56:05.892 [WARNING] :: ..\..\..\..\..\src\pluginsource\DzIrayRender\dzneuraymgr.cpp(369): Iray [WARNING] - API:DATABASE :: 1.0 API db warn : Transaction is released without being committed or aborted. Automatically aborting.
I googled for a while and discovered that the "fix" for this was to set the Mesh Resolution -> Render SubD Level (Minimum) property for my character and all parented nodes to 1, and then it would render. However, after having done so, both the Breastacular & Golden Palace nodes become invisible.
Moreover, I discovered that if I set the View SubD Level to 1 then switch my viewport from Filiment to Iray, I can see the same effect in the viewport. I've attached images from the viewport for both scenarios for your reference.
I tried leaving the parent (g8.1f) at SubD 1 and then setting Breastacular & Shell at something higher, but that causes the renders to fail as described above.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have.
