Hi all, I put this on the Royal render mailing list with no response. I have a simple render farm setup using Royal Render at the University I work at using the idle workstations. I have come across an issue where Royal Render aborts the render because my students files have at some point been worked on a at home (the free edition). When they bring files from their home setup it seems to add a flag to the file that it was created on a student version. When they continue working on it on the uni machines the flag does get removed even though they are some way down the line with their work and go to render. This problem gets compounded when using reference models that are also contiminated! Contaminated is the right word!!
A scene export sometimes does the trick if imported to a project that has been created on the Uni's workstations (because its not a free copy) Yes there is a work around but it is a hindrance as they have to re light scenes(if using physical sky shader)/ setup passes again( I am aware of the add-on they could use for exporting pass data and have pointed them in that direction) Has any one a simpler solution/genius script to remove the flag? It is getting a little daft now the amount of fixing I have had to do today. Any feedback would much appreciated Thanks, Jon
