Obviously im an apprentice and having a painful start with this unconventional tool. I used to use LW but because our studio has Houdini and im deeply fascinated by this tool im trying the switch. So wish me luck. Now to my problem. I am getting a kind of strange result when I try to render/preview some scene, the machine renders but the result I get is a green frame. Until now I doubt my laptop on which I`m running Houdini it for now but i aint really sure of it so I thought to ask.
Thanks in advance G.

Sure thing mate Ill post a frame after work. It simply shows all the objects in my scene as a constant green and alpha as a constant yellow (Sometimes the colors differ) and btw im using H10nc But ill post a frame to show it to you when i get home. Thx stu

Oki Doki colleagues Its not that it happens with this scene only it happens with every scene. Thats why i doubt the hardware. But ill post a copy of the scene. Its a simple primitive rocket, like the one on Houdini 10 splash I wanted to add some textures, than I found out I cant render it. I hope the frame and hip file can help.
Looking at your scene. I have test rendered using the render view and mantra 1. No green background.
When you have a problem to debug, strip the scene to its basics making sure the problem is still there. That means deleting nodes that clearly are not part of the problem.
So ok next time ill strip the scene down to the basics, though this seamed basic to me. Anyways thx for the diplomatic answer! I managed to get it working.
To be honest I still dont know, after a few installations and uninstalls , it started rendering all of a sudden. I tried different builds! Maybe some incompatibilities, but i cant tell for sure since thats not my field.
