Only one bucket on dual-core distributed render

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

I have 2 AMD dual-core 4200+ systems. One I use as a work station and the other is used as a distributed rendering node. The workstation shows 2 buckets in a distributed render and the other system only has one bucket. Any ideas?

Max 9, Vray 1.5 RC3 all 64 bit.

Thanks for your help.

(*) It looks like 3dsmax 9 ignores the “Multithreading” option in DR mode and always uses 1 thread on the render slaves. Until we find a way around this, use the “renderers.current.system_numThreads” MaxScript property to force V-Ray to use a given number of threads for rendering. :slight_smile:
