Differences in local vs cloud.

[jacksc02]

Chaos cloud is using 6.20.20 as the render engine and the latest I can download is 6.20.07 and there are quite big differences in what I render locally to what is rendering on the cloud.
I am wasting a lot of credits doing tests. Everything used to work without a problem.
Reflections are different. Light levels are different.
What has changed? and what can we do to get consistant renders that look like local renders?
