Corona Shared Material Problem - RebusFarm - what's the actual state..?

[Chya]

Hi All,
I'm currently still working with Corona v5 hotfix 2, I've tried the newest v6 hotfix 1 but I find it somehow buggy and then downgraded. I haven't afforded other tests because I'm in the middle of a project.

Corona Shared Material doesn't work with Corona on Rebusfarm (team render)

I' haven't faced the "Corona Shared Material Problem" since now, Rendering on my own machine, but I've to deal with this because I need to render my project on RebusFarm.

I'm Asking for help to figure out workaround to let render flow without obstacles.

Was this problem solved in later versions, official or daily builds..? even if RebusFarm doesn't support it?
What's the actual state..?

and above all...

Are all the nodes whose inputs are being transformed in "Corona Shared" any time I share an output port of source nodes..?
Is it sufficient to make all the nodes unique to avoid the problem..?
Did I misunderstand..?
I’m missing something..?

Many thanks in advance
Happy Rendering
Chya

Hi Chya,

Thanks for your message. We are aware of some issues with the shared shader and are addressing them. Unfortunately, your workaround for this would be to edit your materials so they are not being shared. I have attached an example below. We hope this will be working as per normal in a newer build.

Thank Beanzvision for the reply,

this workaround is however a solution...!!! :-)
then there are no more problems (or headaches)...

it would be a big problem to have to give up the engine or the farm...

we hope for better improvements and fewer obstacles with next releases.
Thanks again
Happy Rendering
