Everything related to Maxwell Render and general stuff that doesn't fit in other categories.

Hi there, I am currently setting up Maxwell on a new Windows based machine. The application is rendering but there are a couple of details I don't quite understand...

When launching a job in the PC render node, I get a terminal window with the message "QIODevice::seek (QTcpSocket): Cannot call seek on a sequential device". It seems to add the same error message each time it starts a new job. What does this mean?

Secondly, the Fire window in FormZ is glacial. Whether using the GPU (Titan X) or the CPU (AMD Ryzen 1950 Threadripper), the fire window crawls through the voxelization so slowly that it may as well have crashed. This is the opposite of what I was expecting from this machine. Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks!
