hey guys,

forgive the newbie, but if i have 2 gpu's on a slave machine, shouldn't my stat's on the Octane render window say "2/2" vs "0/2" ?? see attached image.

thanks for the help on dumb stuff.

Hi jontz71,
in general, 0/2 in Live View infobar means that the Slave is still receiving the scene from the Master, and has not started to render yet.
Are you using instancing as much as possible?
Are you working in All movable mode?

yes to all your questions. after a few restarts of both computers. i was able to get back the "2/2" after the scene calculated.

strange thing was this was not happening till i had an unscheduled power outage and my systems went down after backup died too. luckily a restart helped the situation.

your the best for always helping !

cheers,
