hi,

While dropping a file in the cutout option in the mia material of a cloth I need to render I get the desired cloth rough cut edge. But the moment I transfer my files to the Pc in my room and I hit the render with absolutely nothing changed the cloth edge disappears. Everything in the hypershade is the same. There is no changes what so ever, but I do not understand as to when I hit a render in the Pc of my lab I get the required cloth edge but not when I do the same in my room Pc. I need some help with this one. Thanks in advance.

Can you verify at home that your still linking to the correct location for the file your using to do the cutout?

yes but the question which i think n8skow was asking is not if the file texture node is still linked to the cutout opacity (which for sure is) but if you have the same file structure on the second machine and if the file exists on the harddrive of the second computer!? if not maya will show the connection but at rendertime will not find the file and will fail to give you the desired result.

the file structure is the same. I simply copy paste the entire project form one machine to another. Thanks for replying and apologies for not being accurate as I am still a beginner to the software.

Are you able to post some screenshots - or better yet, the files themselves?
