Title: Backerburner with DRServer problems
Post by: Alex Darby on 2018-03-03, 08:52:37
When using backburner to render, I continually keep getting render nodes getting stuck. Once I restart them they work fine.
I'm finding this happening more and more. I've tried finding out once going wrong.
Max updates all the same, plugins all the same.
This is the error message on the max log.

2018/03/03 09:10:46 WRN: [02472] [08052] MAXScript Callback script Exception: -- Runtime error: No method found which matched argument list
2018/03/03 09:10:46 INF: [02472] [08052] Done loading file:  C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\CoronaRenderer\DrData\corona_dr.max

When I open the scene on the render node, there are no warning or errors.
I will install 3dsmax 2018 to see if the problem persists.

The current 3dsmax version is 2016 with Corona 1.7 Hotfix 3.

So I've installed 3dsmax 2018 on the render nodes. All correct plugins installed.
Submitted two renders from the same scene. One renders with all the nodes the other doesn't.

I think I might have found the problem. Complex Frensel plugin.
Going to remove and monitor.

Sorry the delayed reply. Can you confirm that without the Complex Fresnel it works fine?
Another idea would be to make sure you are using the newest version (https://www.sigershop.eu/free-3ds-max-plugins/) as the older versions were known for causing some random issues.

Can confirm it was an old version. Removed as I don't use the plugin anymore.
Renders nodes working great!
Thx.
