  • Max path for bitmaps and DR....

    Hi all,
    I am still trying to crack the Max bitmap path nut...

    It was my understanding that if you use universal paths in MAX the scene should be renderable by slave even if you do not set up their custom bitmap paths.

    Example, using a diffuse map located in \pentium4foldermap.tif should be accessable by any slave on the same network.

    But it does not seem to work, still.

    I am on max7, vray 1.47.

    Also, Vray DR still produces a weird "cache lock map error", or something, which was not there in 1.46...It happens when I try a irrmap rendering....with the occlusion renderer it actually works fine.

    So, questions:

    1. do you guys edit every slave's Max.ini to match the master Max installation paths?

    2. Is anyone using the universal filename nomenclature to make slaves find the maps on the network?

    3. Is anyone using 1.47 DR with irrmaps calculation succesfully?


    thank you

    regards,

    gio
