I’m having the same problems now.
I was able to render in network with other 4 machines before, with no big problems - except from the slaves staring too late.
This week I´ve had my computer formatted and after I reinstalled Sketchup and Vray (from the same installation files I had before) it started to render this way.
Nothing changed, I have the same programs and files as before and the slaves weren’t touched. I was able to render the same files last Friday.
I just can´t understand why!

Just heard back regarding my support ticket and I guess this is a know issue (BUG) they are working on. I guess we will just have to wait for the fix.

The issue seems to be related to scenes created using older versions of V-Ray. For some reason they don’t have a “master reset” to clear old V-Ray data out of a model like Podium does. I tested this by creating an all new model and running another rendering and it seems to work just fine. But, when I go back to the old model I get these same random results and errors. There seems to be something associated with the old Sketch-up model that doesn’t translate very well to the new version. Try creating a quick model from scratch and rendering it to see if it works.

I hope the fix comes soon!

I will try this! I sure hope a fix is on its way soon, too! Thanks for sharing this info!

So it seems that it isn´t related only to older versions scenes. I´ll try to start another file from zero and check if it’s related also to “previous installations of the same files scenes” ???

agreed- it’s not a version issue. very mysterious and frustrating! ??? >

I ended up reverting back to my old installation since it sounds like the fix will take a while.

thanks.

I reverted back to version 01.05.30 because I found it to be the most stable version for me all around. I wish it had some of the features in the new version and the newer interface but I would rather it be working than not. Good luck!

Thanks- i’m hanging in there until a fix comes out…might be a while but I am hopeful

Re: DR issues- blocky renders here

We are looking in to optimizing the scene loading time, this should hopefully help with the DR Spawner reading scenes too slowly. Not sure when we’ll have a build for SketchUp to test, but it’s in the works.
