Title: [solved]corona rendering black
Post by: Efernando on 2015-12-21, 10:24:43

Hey Guys please help.  My corona scene just started rendering black frames.  In another 3d scene, I'm getting equally odd results.  Does anyone know how this can happen out of nowhere? During the calculation stages of rendering, it takes some time so I know that corona is thinking.  However, once rendering the frame, I get either all white or all black frames.  Any thoughts? Thank you -Erik

Have you tried to adjust exposure settings?

Hey thanks so much for the quick responses! I was hoping to hear back from someone on the forum by tonight after work...only to see that I got two helpful responses within a couple hours.  Appreciate it

- So I made a dumb mistake.  Turns out my license had expired, therefore corona was giving me nothing haha.  I reactivated my license, and everything is working great.

Thanks again for the help -Erik

You should be getting error messages in that case. What version are you using?
