sorry, but we can't reproduce it here...
are you sure you have the latest drivers installed ?

It's probably due to not having started it as administrator - I had forgot of that.
Anyway, my output is totally black. I got 197.45 installed. 1.021 worked ok, I even made 2 or 3 renderings in the last competition.

can't test the .ocs files, they won't open in 1.22 and there's no "open" in 1.21.
Now that's weird tho' - I tried opening the spaceships.obj, all black. opened it in 1.20, rendered fine. retried in 1.22, rendered fine!? :shock: The ol' one lead the way maybe... :D
EDIT I've seen you posted 1.22 scenes, I'll try them.

Tried the scenes, now they work. It's like if something got triggered by 1.21. Anyway, all fine now.

I can't open the demo scene .ocs files either. Just assumed that was a limitation of the demo version? It says "Invalid Scene File Version".

try to download them again, Radiance fixed the link, now it leads to 1.22 files.
