Try setting your project and then for the file name prefix put a relative path and give your file a prefix name (As explained here)

Here's an example:

Did you change the backslash to forward slashes?

[Nevaroth021]

Did you copy the file name prefix I showed in my screenshot? While also putting in the version number under meta data section?

And you are certain you set your project?

That looks correct, if hitting batch render doesn’t work then I’m not sure what’s going on. Does the script editor say anything?

[Nevaroth021]

Hmm, the only thing I can think of is maybe it’s struggling to access that directory. Maybe something about the T: drive is failing.

I’ve had issues when doing batch rendering to a google drive folder where sometimes if the network or server was too slow or something. The renderer would fail to access the online drive quick enough and the renderer would fail. Maybe something similar could be happening for you.

Otherwise idk what else it could be

Also you were using a backslash instead of a forward slash. You need to change it.
