So I've been through the tutorials and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I have two machines I want to use to render:
Then I turn on swarm, turn Swarm on, and set Network Discover to Auto-Discover (Note: Refreshing tags here doesn't bring up any of my tags):
But when I render, I can see by the labeling on each block that breppert-kop-d1 isn't doing any of the rendering. Every single block is my main machine's CPU or GPU:
I did try turning Auto-Discover off, and when I did, I could select my tags. But even if I selected every tag, and then rendered again, it's still just my primary machine doing all the work:
I'd love to consider another node license or two, but frankly, I can't seem to get the 2nd machine to help render, so what good is a 3rd or 4th. Figuring this out would be hugely helpful for me. So if you have any ideas, I'd love to hear them. Thank you!
- iang-mor-d2: My main machine running Sketchup 21 w/ V-Ray 5
- breppert-kop-d1: A node just running V-Ray Swarm that I would like to pitch in and speed up my renders a bit.
