Hi, Thanks for all your replies. Mirko, The machines environment variables are pointing to the Python libraries which are on each machines c: drive. I am unsure whether I should set this centrally to a network location?
I have a workgroup set up for royal render but am unsure where and which gear files put in the workgroup structure: RoyalRender Workgroup: render_apps\renderer_plugins\softimage\workgroup_2014 - three further folders: \Addons \Application \Data Cristobal, I agree with you but I am far down the line with the project and think it may be a simple work group issue!
