hi - just set up my first render farm here. It's working but none of my clients can render any frames because they don't have plugins that are in the scene. I thought atht if the host had the plugins the clients would run off of that?!

No, you have to copy the plugins directory to your client machines. If you have Storm Tracer you'll have to buy the NET version. NET support is free with every other plugin that I know of.

hi Adam - thanks for threply. does that mean I have to install the whole c4d package on each machine? i.e. at the moment there is only client installed on each machine. I don't seem to be able to find a plugins directory.

No, just copy your plugins directory to the root directory of your client installations.

Also make sure that all modules are installed on the clients.
