Just a guess but is your scene saved with the play head on the first frame of 
the timeline or before the cache begins?
I believe I have seen issues with actions/caches not working as expected when 
done otherwise.

Subject: syflex ice cache and renderfarm issues

Hi all,

quick question on caches and renderfarms.

I have a Syflec ICE based cached sim, all works so far.
When exporting the sequence to the farm, it will not render properly.
In that I mean the rendered sequence shows the last frame on all rendered 
frames.
Locally it all renders just fine to a proper sequence of frames.
All related files and cache files are on the server.

Is there something I'm missing here? SI 2013SP1, Arnold and Royal Render.

Cheers for any tips and insights.

Hi Jeff,

Interesting nugget of info. Will have a look to see if that could cause 
this.


cheers!
