Render bug?

Hello

I’m having a weirdness with this scene…I have been rendering variations of it for a few days and I’m now running into some kind of rendering bug…I tried this in R19 and R21 just to see if there was an issue with the Align to Spline tag, which in R21 allows me to go beyond 100%.
I can see this being rendered in the preview, but not in the PV.
What could be the issue?
In the scene here you can see both the sweep, which creates geometry, but then I also tried putting a s&t tag to see if that would help, but it doesn’t seem to.
Could it be an issue with the Tracer?

Hi Alex,

Thank you very much for the file!

Yes, I get the same result. Please send your file to the support. Thank you.

Sorry about your trouble.

However, here is a straightforward workaround. The Tracer is used in a MoSpline, and the MoSpline creates a Destination Spline. All renders fine with it here.

The MoSpline is set to Object> Mode> Spline (This can create a new spline, even with new settings (Points, Intermediate points, etc.)
In the Spline tab> Destination Spline: Empty Spline (You get one from Main Menu> Create> Spline> Empty Spline.

All the best

Hello Sassi

I sent the file to support and they can’t seem to reproduce…The support person tells me it works fine on his Macbook Pro.
I mentioned you had the same issue and he asked about your setup.  His name is Matt

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the effort, I can’t add to an open ticket.

I will try to set up a similar scene and send my report.

Cheers
