View Full Version : Net Render Server Do-over
s2a-adamk 04-24-2003, 03:15 PM So the big net job finially finishes... only to notice that one of the servers was rendering without a key map.
Can I somehow re run the job - but only the frames that machine did?
Of course it was one of the faster machines so there are a lot of frames and they are not in even increments.
thanks,
a

well, basically you have to find out which frames were erronous.
then, from within max, you can render multiple frames
by adding their number in the framesdialog in the timoutput section of your render dialog
1,3,7,9 for non-incremetal frames, 1-9 for incremetal frames.
a combo would look like this
1,6,8,10-23,27,30 etc.
be sure to include maps in your network render dialog to ensure all maps get copied to the slave with the maxfile . . .

Or delete the frames that are wong and resubmit the job with skip existing frames turned on.

uh, yeah, but how do I get que manager to do that work for me?
Obviously I can't go though all the 1000s of frames in the summary and write down each one that server worked on..... that would take a day in itself. Might as well re-run the whole job if that is the case. Can I get it to list by server, or something?
Oh - Jo- good call. That would be a good way to do manually (if it comes to that).
thanks again,
