Precalc LC/LC Send to DR

It would be nice if possible when doing a LC/LC test that it had the option to calc the LC on the main machine then save to a network location prior to rendering.

If I do straight-up LC calc on each of the machines, some of my slower comps take up additional time before processing buckets.

I usually have to save to a vrlmap first, do not render final image, turn off DR, then load it back in afterwards from file with other options checked off again. It’s a few added steps that would be great to eliminate.

This has been asked before with a proposed method of the fastest node finishing the LC pass would send it over to the others on the same job.

Definitely a must in my opinion, so I second, second, second. :slight_smile:

Best regards,
