Well, you actually can stack materials, when using polygon selection in the texture tag... this doesn't solve every mapping problem, but helps once in a while...

hi ahmet!

i noticed that my system crashes sometimes when netrender is activated. this is happening randomly and until now i couldn't figure out what it is all about... now i noticed that sometimes the text colour of the gpu info turns from green to yellow or even red (see picture), which seems to ...

hey ahmet!

short update: i re-installed everything from scratch and it's working now!

GPUs are still not showing up in setings/devices (are they supposed to do so?) but are clearly rendering now. in the viewport it now says Gpu: 2/2 Slaves: 1. so, everything's nice now!

one question left: how do ...

allright, thanks!

thanks again!

max

wow,

now that was quick! thanks ahmet! yes, i activated network rendering in LV-settings...

cheerz,
