simple network render question

[grue1970]

if i have 3 cameras in my scene, 3 different cached to disk FG maps, can i simply submit Cam1/Cam1FG map to network render, then submit Cam2/Cam2FGmap to network render, then 3 and expect all 3 cameras to be rendered out with the appropriate FG map?

Hi dear,

Sure you can send the job separately trough backburner and set the final gather for each one to read the proper one.

As the backburner rendered file will generate a (*.zip) file with the settings you have included in your file when do you send the render to be made you will be able to send scene with appropriate settings.

Our office render manager crashes on 3Ds Max / vRay jobs whenever there's an Apple Macintosh cabled into the network via Ethernet. When they are only on the network via wifi there appears to be no problem - PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Hi Dave,

It could be that some IPV6 component from your Mac OS is creating some trouble in the render process.

Did you use your mac to render 3dsMax file, or install a Backburner component.

Under Mac OS you will be able to render Maya scene but not 3dsMax files.

Another point to check is the IPV6 protocol.

Try to disable it from your Windows OS:

Then also in the Mac OS:

networksetup -setv6off Ethernet

If do you render via the Vray Dr spawner, it will be an issue to request the help of Chaosgroup support team.

Best regards,
