Hi everybody,

I've got a problem with netrender since I upgraded from C4D R17 + Octane 3.06.2 to C4D R19 + Octane 3.07.2 : Netrender is reloading Data on slave every frame, while, in the past, it was only loading it during the first frame. Due to that, I'm loosing all the benefit of netrender since the datas are big and the frames fast to calculate...

Any clue?

Hi tegatwork,
the behavior you described should not have nothing to do with c4doctane version, but from the specific Render Settings of the scene in the Geometry engine, and Geometry control parameters.
If in your scene, big part of geometry is changing during time, a lot of data need to be sent at each frame.

thank you beppe. My scene is a kind of architectural stuff, nothing but the cam is moving.

Everything was working perfectly with Octane 3.06.2

Hi tegatwork,
I cannot reproduce the issue here, the scene is sent to the Slaves only at first frame, according to the settings in Render Settings.
Do you mind to share the scene with me via PM, for a deeper investigation?

thank you Beppe, I'll send you a PM right know
