Hi,
we've got four machines we use as a render farm with backburner as manager.
Making 250 frames for a shot, we suddenly saw that in a random manner every machine sometimes made a frame with a different light.
The sequence was wrong, so we had to redo all the bad renders on a single machine.
At the time we were not able to isolate the problem.
When we made another, different shot all seemed to work well, untill we decided to change "filmic shadow" parameter to 0,5.
Suddenly the problem came up. So this is all I know: we can't use filmic shadow in a network render contest.
We did'nt had time to see if other Ton mapping values can cause such behavior...
Any ideas?

Thank you,
Man

Where did you set the post processing parameters, in the render set up, Corona Camera, or VFB?
