  • DR server losing custom user paths

    Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help me out. I have 3 slave machines I've recently setup at my workstation for distributed rendering. All Windows 7 running 3dsMax 2014 Design and Vray 2.5. We've recently assigned each a static ip address. I remotely log in to each machine using my login and set things up (custom user paths, etc.). I have one machine that will retain the custom user paths list I give it until I try to use it for distributed rendering. Then the list reverts to what it was prior to my setting it. The custom paths are on a network that each machine has rights to access, both read and write. I know it's the distributed rendering that's causing the reset because I've changed the paths on that machine, closed max, restarted max and the paths are still correct. I even did this and rebooted the machine and the paths were correct. It isn't until I've attempted distributed rendering that the paths get reset.

    Any insight would be appreciated.

    If I am not wrong, when V-Ray submits DR-jobs it resets anything including Projects and everything else since this information is gathered from the workstation machine which submits the job.
    When the DR-job is completed the settings should be restored as they were before the DR-job.
    This in general should not cause any issues but let us know if that's not the case.
