Backburner and DR not working correctly

V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max Issues
1

Hi all,

Recently I cannot get backburner and DR to work together. Up until now I have been able to submit a job to backburner on a slave machine and then pick and choose when I want my main workstation to join as a distributed renderer by loading the VRaySpawner. Now when I do it just says vraydummy2012 in the task bar and nothing happens on the workstation.

I can do it the other way fine, if the workstation is the host of the render and the slave joins in. I have checked that both computers are listed in the DR settings. Cant recall what would have changed to cause this other than a V-Ray update.

Thanks,

Seems I managed to fix it :slight_smile: I ticked restart servers on render end and it works. I Don’t recall having to do that before though.

Glad to hear you sorted it out - let us know if it happens again.
