Hi there sorry we are liscenced customers but all out licences are under my employers email adress hence the post in the demo section.

I have a urgent problem i have been battling for a while. I am using 2.25 on PC with c4d plugin.

I have aniamted jpeg textures that set to frame range with correct movie start movie end and range frame numbers. When i render locally on my workstation(3x 980ti= it's wotking good. When i send to network render the aniamted textures do NOT render. I am running on tight deadline.

Please HELP!!!!!!!!

How do you render out on network? Results should be same when you use Octane Network rendering.

using octane daemon. The network rendering is working fine except animated textures. I am using three extra nodes with two 980Ti's in each

Sorry but that's not clear to me how can't render it. Because Octane NetRender is different. No need to store or point the images. It automatically transfer render data to clients so it should be fine if you can see them in local machine.
Can you post somethings to make the issue is more understandable? On my tests all seem fine here now.

Hey Akotar

I rebooted my system and the nodes and re rendered the same section and looks like it's working!!!!!!!!!....very confused? but happy.

So thnaks very much i really appreciate you looked into this for me. I Have a lot of rendering to do with these long aniamted textures so will let you know if i have any more issues.

also wondered if i can possibly have access to the registered forum. My employer own many Octane liscences although he himself doesn't use octane.


thnaks so much.
