Hi

I've switch from 3DS 2017 to 2019 and Corona 2 to 3 and have an issue with the DrServer.
Corona on workstation does not see the slave (allready tryed the "from file").
Backburner is installed.
Network connection is ok  (communication between workstation an slave and back)
Workstation and slave have the same wersion of software.
Any ideas what might be wrong??

Usually it's firewalls, often in the router.

As a note, Max 2019 and onward only needs Backburner for network rendering using Backburner, CoronaDR should work without it now.

So, when you click "Search LAN" nothing comes up? I would definitely check firewalls, not sure but it could be that the ports or connections have changed with 2019 since it does something different now (ie. doesn't need Backburner for DR, so something has changed).

Also want to check that the right version of DR is running - if I remember rightly, the install location for DR, Licensing Server etc. changed, and it's not impossible that you might be running the old version from a shortcut or something similar. Just guessing at things to check :)
