(Resolved) merged alembics dont render on farm

[LeoYfver]

when 2 alembics are merged they render fine locally in VFB but dont get rendered at all on the farm, they are not even read into the vrscene.

does this have to be more specific? or a testscene? would be nice to have it looked at

maybe its something from our side, just dont now what that could be

god, my example scene didnt work because i had $HIP as path, doh. still have the issue in another case so have to dive in to see if there is another issue. thanks again david for testing.

found the issue. so in my scene one of the alembics where correct and the other one had $HIP and when merged wouldnt be read into the vrscene on the farm. If i fixed the $HIP both worked.

So not sure if that would be a bug or not but works for me now.

thanks again for the help and sorry for confusing you guys and myself :P
