DR can't see bitmaps

[YoyoBoy]

I'm trying distributed rendering for the first time in a long while, and the texture maps on the materials aren't showing up in my other computer's buckets. It works just fine as a network render, so I don't think it's a path issue. Any ideas?

Thanks.

No idea if this is related, but my other computer also can't see my dongle through the network. Not that it really needs to, but I think it should, and I can't figure out how to make it happen.

Is the V-Ray spawner running as a Windows service or you are running it manually? If it's running as a service, you will need to adjust the service log on user, as described here:

No, it's not related. The other machine only needs to see the V-Ray license server.

That did the trick. Thanks!
