Different results from render nodes

[Dynedain]

I'm rendering an animation using 3 machines (regular netrender, not DR) with a saved IRmap and Photonmap. One machine is rendering the scene much lighter than the others, causing a periodic flicker. Any suggestions?

nevermind...reinstalled vray on that node and rebooted...problem seems to be gone

We've run into other causes for this problem in the past.. (for info)

Primary on the hit list was FinalRender stage 0 install.. when installed in a machine it causes the renders to come out a spot brighter then on a machine that does not have it installed.. (This came into play in Scanline, Vray, and fr renders across otherwise identical machines)

Secondly, I've had some issue with the Next Limit max connection plugins also.. hell if i know why, but having an older version of the plug changes the look (brightness) of a render as opposed to a new one..

Go figure.. not your error, but mabye help someone someday
