..either that or im being a complete idiot and ive ticked something i shouldnt have, which is by far more likely..


but to put it simply, ive started playing around with normal mapping, again... and ive got the low and high poly meshes.. and ive rendered to texture (ill admit im following lots of tutorials here, brain trepaning and the brick arch one)

..but then, where it should render out the normal map in a window after click 'render' in the render-to-texture box, the render window doesnt appear. I searched about a bit, but i guessed it was something ive done and hoped someone else might have experienced similar, etc


cheers if anyone knows what ive done :D


=============

ok, so i changed from the mental ray renderer, to the scanline renderer.. and now at least the render-window pops up, but along with it a small dialog box comes up saying: "<!> Render Failed or Cancelled by User" ..now i definately didnt cancel it, and im getting closer with using, what i imagine is the right renderer.. but its still not working.. any help appreciated :P
