aaaaaand my pc is refusing to render past here. its been 3 hours now trying to render it and im not getting any of the lights. initially it was caused by my settings having changed (dont't know how) but now at the end of the tutorial it refuses to render the final image. things I've done to try and get the render to work: closed all background programs reduced resolution of all textures to 1920 instead the the 4k stated in the tutorial changed render quality from 2 to 1 currently trying to convert tiff files into .map files solution: In Maya preferences under render setting set mental ray to be the default renderer and check "use optimised textures(auto/conversion)" box then link it to the location of your textures and click update optinized cache textures now. Even with the pseudo solution I am unable to render anything near the major light sources of the scene but have been able to shot the wood texture on my crates and beams. after restar
