Hi,
I hope someone helps me because I am searching 4 days now how to solve this.
I have a complex scene, a house with a lot of vegetation and lights. The scene was rendering fast enough ( 2.5K- 1.5 hours at a dell T7600 2x2687w 128BG).
At the process of the file, after adding decoration stuff etc, the scene was taking a lot to open and was stacking to transform vertices when I tried to render.
So I collapsed all geometry modifiers, I converted bitmaps to coronabimaps, I merged the file to a clean one but nothing changed.
Also I checked permissions and I disabled UAC and antivirus with firewall.
Furthermore I checked the scripts with the timers.
The last thing i tried was to save as archive and send the file to corona support, but the file couldn't be created due to invalid read of textures and proxies.
I am using a Synology NAS for all of my files, Win 10, 3dsmax 2016, Corona latest daily.
The weird part is that after a while the file couldn't open anymore (freezes at loading), so I opened the scene to my backup computer. The file runs smoothly and renders fine for its specs (i7 5930,32BG).
I tried the DR in my backup computer using T7600 as a a slave but it stuck to parsing scene (on the slave only).
Probably I will miss the deadline but this is not the case.
I am wondering if someone has anything else to suggest because my next effort will be to format the workstation.
I am attaching the image that managed to get started rendering at the T7600 it is rendering for 4.30 hours/ 12 passes totally.
Thanks in advance and I am sorry for the long post.
