How to NOT render on the local machine when distribute rendering

[fraggle]

Thanks but it didn't work. My workstation is still rendering even with this code pasted into the Maxscript listener.
Any other idea?

Open a MaxScript listener and type

renderers.current.system_numThreads=1

Best regards,

Sorry, it works but not fully. one bucket is still using the localhost.
Should I use: renderers.current.system_numThreads=0
to get zero bucket on the localhost?

Hi,

This way V-Ray will use all available threads.
Unfortunately only in 3.x builds the local render node could be excluded from the DR rendering.

You can try to lower the 3DS Max process priority in conjunction with renderers.current.system_numThreads=1

in windows 7 u can disable all cpus in task manager. I'm not sure how well it will work tho

FINALLY IT WORKS AFTER TRYING SEVERAL TIME.

Just try it again, the listener return an error (vray 2.5):
renderers.current.system_numThreads=1
Substance error in g_ReadPackageFile, can't load .sbsrarSubstance error in g_ReadPackageFile, can't load .sbsrar1
