Title: Network Rendering changes Color and lighting
Post by: Flo1234 on 2024-09-30, 12:16:14
Hello Community,
I have had a problem for a few weeks now. When I render via Network Rendering, the color and brightness changes. Both Pcs have the same 3dsMax and Corona version. I have both images here for you to look at. Can someone help me with that?

Greetings and thanks alot

It is sounding like there is an issue with 3ds Max itself, see the message here from the community https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=43590.msg228057#msg228057 which reports this happening with other render engines too.

Hi,

We have this reported already, will share updates as they arrive (at least to the part related to Corona).
Can you please confirm that the scene which has differences when rendered with DR/Network rendering uses OCIO color management?

Thank you for your quick answers. The problem described in the post pinned here does indeed seem to be similar to mine.

My Scene works with the OCIO workflow, exactly. I have just changed it for test purposes. Then of course I get a different result visually, but the images from my PC and the server pc are then the same again.

For now, please use Gamma workflow is possible if you are planning to use DR/Network rendering.
The issue is probably on 3ds Max side which we can do nothing about.
