When using DR, how do you free up your main workstation to continue modeling etc.?

It now works everytime for us. I had to open up Max on the server I want to send the job to, and add all of the DR nodes into Vray using the render settings dialog.
Now whenever a job gets sent to that server it will use all of the nodes for DR.
Worked for us

Sorry the question but using only DR by vray is it slower?What's wrong using only VrayDistributiveRender with vrayspawner on each server marchine? why is needed to use BB I never understood this. Thanks in advance for the reply

You don't need to, if you don't want to However, it is often more convenient, especially if you need to queue a bunch of renderings and don't want to sit and wait for each one to finish before rendering the next.

Best regards,

Ok thanks for the reply. Anyway without BB I don't wait for each calculation end I animate one camera putting it in one position for each frame and indicate the frames to caclulate to 3dsmax DR seems to works fine in this way.without BB.
