Ok well i was working on a shot today when it suddenly crashed, i was able to reopen it as a .ma file, i started doing all the work i wanted on it, light linking, changing shaders etc. When i went to save i wanted to save it as a .mb and this error came up...
Error: File contains unknown nodes or data. To preserve this information, the current file type cannot be changed.
Bit anoying as i was worried if the render farm would understand .ma so i did some searching on the internet by putting this error into google and a cg forum came up so i looked at it and some guy called Richard said type in...
Is -type unknown;
this brings up a list of unkwown nodes and for some reason it was looking for renderMan so the way to do this is to type in...
'delete Is -type unknown';
this will deleate the unkown nodes and allow you to save as .mb
About Me
- Simon
- I am a 3d artist currently looking for work. From an early age I have been interested in CGI and discovering how it was created. My specific areas of interest and expertise are modeling and texturing. In my spare time I develop my skills in these areas by working on projects such as those in my portfolio. These are the areas that I feel most passionate about as I love to see great concept art and being able to transform this into a 3D environment.
