Slave RT HDR dome light error

[ior=0]

When I use a Vrayhdr map and hdr image within a dome light, I'm getting a render slave RT error...

"Failed to create plugin 75 (skyHDR_unknown5_gamma) Recompiling geometry"

I get this on both of my 2 RTslaves. The plugin number 75 has also been 39 and 44
The render result looking like the RT slaves can't see the hdr map, all network paths check ok.

I'm downloading 2.4.03 - is this a known bug that has been fixed?

It looks like for whatever reason the slaves have an older version of V-Ray RT installed.

ok thanks Vlado, weird I updated all 3 at the same time. I'll try again with 2.4.03

I've just update all nodes and workstation to 2.40.03 but still getting the "failed to create..." error on the domelight hdr texture. Other texture are loading ok and I have tried different hdr textures just in case.
I'm also getting a "scene is empty" warning in the console.

The RT console reports the V-ray RT render server version is 2.20.02 x64 and VRay core version 2.00.01

Ok then; can you get me a scene that replicates the error to vlado@chaosgroup.com ?

Hi Vlado, you were right. I was using an old RT render server shortcut on my desktop that was pointing to the 2011 Chaos folder not the latest build. My bad

Ah, good to know
