Out of curiosity, why is that?
That have I also wondered
guess there is some funky argument parsing going on.EDIT: To answer your other question I would use hython instead of hbatch and write a script.

For some reason the frame range I specify is overwritten by the one inside the Hip file, how do I make the -f one the one it renders?
Also it didn't work.
This exact string.
render rop_geometry -f 87 300 -Va1 -s
You need to do it as:
render -f 87 300 -Va1 -s rop_geometry
Then both verbosity and framerange will work.

Well * don't work in group fields on SOP nodes either so makes sense it don't work here either (Pattern field on the Group Node and the group field on for example a Edit node works different).
Leaving it just blank makes no selection at all on regular SOP. Would be nice I guess if it acted exactly the same here.
I guess you can submit an RFE on the wildcard handling and a bug report on globPoints not being consistent for blank.

You should use .points() or .prims() if you wan't all.
There is an example in the docs.

I am fairly certain your problem is your Volume Step Size when rendering. If you scaled it up you should make sure that setting is scaled as well.

Thanks for your response JuanDos! I checked the computer specs on the seller's site and it says that 8gigs of RAM is the maximum amount of RAM that this computer can have… Anyway, what is actually the great benefit of more RAM? Does it accelerate the cooking of a simulation?
You will be able to simulate more particles at the same time and higher resolutions without having to swap between HDD and RAM.

obiwandk
what i mean, is hardware based, like more cpu. more ram. bigger graphic card.
More cores and higher speed for the CPU and more Ram always helps. Mantra ain't using the GPU in any way tho so a new graphic card won't help you for rendering.

OpenGL graphics in VirtualBox is just in an experimental state and don't work very good if it works at all.
Why would you wan't to do this?
Do a dual boot OSX/Linux instead.
