When Network renders is active, sometimes textures don't update in one quadrant or half of the image. See attached image, the bump map on the left is no longer even in the project but is still appearing in the live viewer (it should look like right side)

Deactivating network render fixes the problem which leads me to believe its a problem with the slave not getting updated texture information.

Happened again with an animation sequence using 3.08
An animated texture is not being animated on the top left quadrant.

Same at me:

See attahed file: The object in the scene is a Computerscreen showing a movie sequence with applied animated texture emission material (as jpeg sequences single frame)

1. in life viewport of master the left half image rendered by slave wont update the material (material= animated texture emission via jpeg sequence). It seems to be "overlayed", a few parts of the screen showing the "real" state of the screen, and a mix of "not updated mat" – see atached image: IT should be a ONE screen image, with no layer/artefacts.

AND

2. no update of animation in queued mode rendering. The complete sequence is rendered well, but the animated emission texture stucks at the about the 10th frame of the JPEG Sequence, from then the material wont update,

Client and Slave same HW/SW configration.

Octane R 3.08 Standalone via Cinema 4d Plugin
OSX Sierra 10.12.6
Cinema4d R19.0.53

This results is in hassle of splitting the render scene and "manually" and render the scene using solitary cinema/octoane stand alones in frame area, withou using network rendering,.
So NETWORK RENDERING WONT WORK.


PLEASE HELP, Octane is my favourite!
But this workaround does not make sense.

THX and regards!!!

Did you tried with 3.08.2-R2.1?
