[Max] General Discussion / Re: REBUS RenderFarm

« on: 2016-12-02, 11:38:09 »

.Cexr output is vital in my workflow as is the lightmixer element. I have a ridiculous amount of images to render and my only concern is not being able to make use of these features when submitting to Rebus.

Any idea how long it might take to implement .cexr output so I can consider Rebus for future projects?

[Max] Resolved Feature Requests / Re: Blow up option for interactive Corona region render

I know this is an old thread/request but I would very much like to see an option for a region zoom in the interactive render window, Vray calls it 'Real zoom'

[Max] I need help! / Cancel Render using DR takes ages

« on: 2016-10-26, 19:00:08 »

Apologies if this has been answered before but I couldn't find any relevant threads using the forum search.

The problem I am having is cancelling a render isn't actually doing anything, or is really really slow.

If I disable DR I can cancel a render whenever I choose and it stops instantly, no problems here.

However, when using DR with 1 render node, I could stop a render after 5 seconds and be waiting 30 mins or more before I can use Max again (usually to tweak a material and hit render again).

It would seem that cancelling/stopping a render on my workstation doesn't affect the render node - this just keeps pushing on with the passes regardless, so my workstation remains locked in to the render process.

I did have another issue relating to the time limit not doing anything but that's probably best in a thread of its own - I think the 2 problems are related though as again this goes away when DR is not in use.

Any other users experiencing this issue?

Thanks

EDIT...

Not sure what has changed but I am now getting a much quicker response when cancelling a render. Hitting Cancel as opposed to Stop seems to be much quicker if anyone else is having similar issues
