I must have done something goofy in AM, because now whenever or whatever I try to render doesn't. Yes, nothing renders except the cameras background color. I can get a pretty blue screen rendered, I can get a funky red screen, but nothing in the chor, not the ground nor any model imported or dragged there will show up???? Super weird. I gave up trying to figure out what I might have messed up, so I uninstalled AM, rebooted, and reinstalled. Well, still the same issue. Now this is really weird. I tried creating simple stuff from scratch to render in a brand new project and still nothing. I dragged an existing project from the cd and that too does not render. Finally I went back to my v13 and everything rendered fine in that one. I am stumped, what could possibly cause this? This is v15a btw.

Can someone tell me how to do a complete purge of AM from my system so I can reinstall from scratch. When I uninstalled the first time and then reinstalled, there must have been some remnants of v15 somewhere, because it did not ask for a web authorization number and all my chor settings came back from before the uninstall.

Thanks for any and all replies and help.

I did some searching and found this: http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3378

Now I'll be able to do a clean install and see what happends.

It sounds like you might be rendering from the wrong camera (or View).
If you have more than one camera you may want to investigate that.

No, it was nothing that simple. This was happening with all projects, new and existing. It was a global problem. The clean uninstall, including removing the Hash registry keys, did the trick. I am now able to render properly again. This was really weird.

Thanks for the quick reply, though:-)
