Hi!
Since I know that MultiTexture causes a lot of problems with DR, I used Corona MultiMap, but had a problem when compiling the info from different computers.
here's the final render:

And here how I see it WHILE rendering:

Thanks!

Just a stab in the dark:
Have you made those planks with floor-generator?
If so, are you positive that Floor-generator is installed on both machines?
I'm betting this is the problem...
-
Oh my!
That's maybe the problem! I'm gonna check if it's installed everywhere and render again.
Feeling so dumb that I didn't think about that hahaha I've installed like 20plugins on every machines, I didn't even think that forgetting one could be the problem.
I'll tell you soon.

Good luck mate.
It's a pain I know - making sure each machine has the exact same software and plug-ins installed at all times.
I've asked, but never found a solution on how to manage this - some sort of system that automatically organizes this for us would be amazing.
The best I've come up with is a spreadsheet, ha. Showing my PC's and a list of each plug-in installed.
-
A simple but very useful approach is to create a test scene, where every plugin you need is used. Create a BB job from it and let every node render one frame to check if everything is working correctly.
Good Luck

Good tip!
Alternatively, Pulze Render Manager also achieves this quite easily. It checks each node PC when using their (sort-of distributed rendering) system and lets you know of any missing plug-ins.
I'm a HUGE fanboy of their offerings, so I can highly recommend both the Scene Manager and Render Manager.
-
Yes, and it does (plugin) version check and sanity checks as well. The render manager looks great all in all. But personally I do not want to be hooked on another software - I monitor all max.log files and get warnings anyway if something is missing. Keep it simple :)
Good Luck

Aaaand It was that. We've 6 render nodes, and it was missing in two of them... I'll try your ckeckers and recommendations, because indeed is a pain hahaha
Thank y'all mates!! <3
