Help with batch renderer, object disappears

[trin000]

I have completed my animation. When I render current frames, all my objects are in place and looks good. However, when I attempt to batch render, my main character (sub div and rigged) appears not in where I located him currently for the animation, but instead appears in the location that I originally created him (where I built and binded him). So the frames rendered with batch render has all the other objects but not my main character. Please help. It would be greatly greatly appreciated.

That is odd, how is the character bound? Wrap deformaers? Bound poly proxy? Did you delete history before binding?

Thanks for replying! I think I just used rigid bind under bind skin. I don't think I deleted history before. Have I made a mistakes in binding, and thus resulting in this problem? Any suggestions of solution options?

Thanks a bunch!!!

Also,

When I test my animation with playblast, it is normal (with main character where he is suppose to be), but when i batch render, my main character goes back to original bind pose.

Which version of amya is htis? You pretty much allways need to delete history before binding if for no other reason to speed things up when animating.

I would suggest as a test that you go to the bind position and detach the skin by deleting it's history. Then reattach and see if you get the same error when doing a batch render.

It is for Maya 5 unlimited. I don't remember whether I did delete history or not since I've worked on this character multiple times (don't remember which time I did delete and if I didn't in this final one). Anyhow, I will try your suggestion. Thanks a whole bunch. You have been helpful! If there is another other ideas of what might be wrong, please let me know. Thank you again! Appreciate it.

I have attempted to detach adn delete history, then rebinding.

Batch rendering still has the same problem of my character not showing up. Are there any other possible ideas of why there is this problem? please let me know. Again, appreciate it!
