Hey all,
I think i am going crazy here. Last time i tried cooperative rendering with the V1 it worked but the SL would not show... i had not had the need to use it since i installed the patched version of V1. Today i really needed it and mxcl server and manager just crash... it does not work. Please tell me i am doing something wrong....

The V1 coop doesn't work, V1.1 works really well. I ran it last night over six machines without a glitch. The SL level update doesn't work at the moment but seeing as I was a sleep I don't care :D All that matters is that at 7.30am the image was rendered perfectly..

The V1.1x is the one giving me issues. The mxcl on all machines do not respond and crash before it can start rendering.

mmm wierd.

Here is what I do.

Set up a machine as a manager

Fire up the server app on each machine.

Open maxwell server and open the mxs file, then make sure that the image and the mxi file outputs are network paths. Also make sure that all the textures are on an accessible network.

Connect to server, add file and submit..

Maybe a stupid question but have you tried rendering the image locally? Is so try rendering it locally on one of the other machines.
