Thank you to all for the replies. I have not yet had time to try any of
the ideas posted, but will report back as soon as I get a chance. It
was part of a valentines related project that obviously didn't get
completed in time. I'll post a link to a clip once I get it working.
Regards,
Brandon

Hi,
I got this error quite allot a while ago on a project, unfortunately I
don't think you'll find that adding the requested missing channel will fix
the problem, it occurred for me randomly and always when you try to render,
it seems to only occur in large scenes and also I think it is related to
large scale geometry, planets, large sections of life scale landscapes etc,
also I think it has something to do perhaps with overlapping or co-planar
geometry, some fixes I found that worked only sometimes are : slightly
moving the camera angle (not always possible) , trying to adjust the
position of large planes or primitives and particularly objects which may be
co-planar trying to separate them, scaling the whole project down x10. the
best I can come up with is it is some kind of precision error or something,
try also perhaps saving and reloading just the objects, animations etc into
a new project with a different scale.
It is a very frustrating problem, hope you can find a solution, I have a
feeling I had another fix but it slips my mind at the moment also, if I
remember I will post again.

Hi all,
I brought some Realflow work into RS for rendering of the animation, but I
get an error when I try to render:
Pointwise object property for unknown channel:
Realflow
[Error:r3freng_:404
I figured this problem out a couple years ago, but can't remember now or
find and reference to my solution.... I remember it had something to do
with an object having to preexist in the RS scene before the realflow work
was brought in, but I have not been able to figure out and reproduce the
fix. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. This is just one of
the reasons I didn't upgrade to v7...(nothing improved for realflow
import/export/rendering).
TIA,
Brandon
