Title: Render node not saving out elements [solved]
Post by: james_g_brown on 2016-12-19, 13:20:09

Hi there,

We have a small farm of 8 render nodes and whilst 7 of them are behaving, just one of them is not saving out the render elements at the end of a render. It says out the basic RGB beauty pass ok but no elements?

I have checked the obvious things and the drive we save frames to is mapped correctly, the version of 3ds max we are using is the same as the others, most up to date version of Corona is installed. Basically this machine is a clone of the other 7.

If anyone has any ideas or something I could look at I would really appreciate it.

Cheers,

J

My bet would be 3dsmax doing something strange. Can you try removing all render elements on the master PC and re-adding them again (if that's not too much work...) and running the render on the farm again?

Unfortunately this didn't work :(

Still no elements from that one render node. Very odd....

Any other ideas?

Its a powerful machine so its frustrating we can't use it!

Thanks,

J

I seemed to have got it working be deleting the ENU folder on the node. Something must have corrupted in there...
