  • render: “files cannot be written check out paths” C4D

    Posted by Dro Adeoba on September 29, 2010 at 10:00 pm

    When i try to render my project its tells me ” Files cannot be written – please check output paths!”

    Does anyone know what went wrong.
    I did move a folder into another one. But it all stayed on the same harddrive!

    Please help!
    thanx,

    D

    Check the path in the render>save tab. It’s probably set to a directory that doesn’t exist on your machine.

    I fixed this by going to the render settings custom presets box on the bottom left side of the Render Settings menu. The reason i got this error was because i highlighted my render preset without clicking on the little box with the dot in it to the left of it, it’s selected when it turns white. I felt so stupid when i figured that out.
