So, I've been working on a 'holiday' sort of render, and everything has been going on swimmingly. There are five 'characters' in the scene, which is relatively large, and they've all been renamed, so I can keep track (better than figure 1, Figure 2, etc). This hasn't been a problem for me in the past. I'm having a strange problem, though. Yesterday, I did a preliminary render, saved, and quit... (Sorry for the weird nudity and lack of textures.)
