Grey Screen on Render

Support Lighting and Rendering
#1

Very noob question!:o

I’m getting a grey screen when rendering project 1, but visible render on project 2 (both blender render).

It works if I switch to cycle render, but it seems like I can only apply UV mapping in blender render.

Any idea why project 1 wants to ruin my life?:confused:

I have a solution to this problem :slight_smile:
If you want to render this model by Blender Render you need to:
Go into properties panel>Material
Next uncheck the button “Use shader nodes to render the material” and it shoud work.

Alternatively you can remove that material and create new one.

If you want to render it in Cycles Render you need to:

  1. Unwrap your mesh
  2. Go into Material panel
  3. Under the surface you might click “Use Nodes” (if it was disabled)
  4. Click on the gray dot in the color line
  5. Choose “Image Texture” from the list
  6. Finally click on the image icon and choose yours image.
