ping not received...

[thomes]

hi

just did a search for this but found no answer...

so vlado...

i have a big scene, about 600mb maxfile...render with dr...all slaves are connected and have new! started scene...but scene is not transfered to them...master renders light...there come all the warnings that ping is not received and dropping connection...if i go to one client and kill the spawner then i get render host added and instantly scene transferred to the client and rendered...

...also if i start an previously added client while already rendering it get´s instantly added and renders...

so it´s not a problem of the client or the maxfile there...i think it must be a ping problem of the master...


i hope it helps...woul´d be good...

It seems to be a problem when transferring large 3ds Max files; one solution might be to use the 3ds Max compress on save option; another is to use X-Ref files, so that the master file itself is small enough and can be transferred fast.
