sky preset stops rendering after ~20 frames

[Jon Simpson]

Oh, I forgot to mention that everything renders perfectly in the view port and even the thumbnails in the navigator are right.

I am now trying to render just the sky and they are are all rendering blank

I just rendered 0-250 and the sky shows in all frames

Thanks Brian. I should have posted earlier that disabling the alpha channel render fixed the problem. But I am now interested in the fact the project file that I attached still had that option ticked. Why it would work on your system with that still ticked but not on mine, what are your thoughts?

it was created in 14 and saved in 15 and I’m using 17 – the only thing I did for the full render was to turn off AO since it adds extra render time without affecting things (excepting problems with transparent objects occasionally) and I did render some frames (0-60) with AO just now to test and that works too. So I’m guessing they fixed something in-between.
