Render is pink using Iray

R Golbraith

Hey Guys. I am trying to do a render of some Characters in a forest. There is nothing fancy going on here. When I try to render in Iray the image is very pink. When I render in 3Delight all the terrain is white but the trees and grass and the Characters are all fine. I'm not using any lights so the renderer is using the default one. I have turned off the forest and just the terrain but the pink persists. All thoughts would be appreciated.

My system specs are: PC Windows 10 Pro with 3.60ghz i7 processor, Nvidia GTX 970 graphic card. 16 gig of ram, 6TB of storage.

It's probably your antivirus — this sounds like a problem that's reported every now and then where a critical image utility file used by DAZ|Studio is tagged as a false positive, this causes the weird colours. I can't remember the name of the file, but it's frequently possible to tell your antivirus that the file is OK, and restore it. Anyone else reading this remember the file name?

edit to add that the file is   freeimage.dll

This tread in particular is helpful as gives the various AVs that are doing this, and how to get round it.   http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/102026/pink-object-after-iray-render
