3dsmax install type for render node

[F J]

ok,

im gettin' my render node set up..

so, i hear u cant use ur normal 3dsmax license to work on a 2nd computer (u'd have to get some sorta network license n STILL only 1 computer could be used for work at a time)..

 

but we can still use it for normal render slave duties..

so how do i go about installing 3dsmax on this render slave? full install? do i have to insert serial numbers, license info, etc?

 

thx

 

edit: oh! which computer do i get BackBurner on? workstation or render slave? both?

You just need to install max. Don't need to register it. Leave it be and if you ever get in a bind you could activate the 30 day trial and have someone step in and help you reach a deadline.

alright, cool, i got it to work, thx..

still have a problem with textures so im now looking into the Asset Tracking thing..

 

now whats the story on IRmap/LC?

only 1 computer should calc these, right?

will the slave go fetch these calcs like it fetches the textures or do i have to do this stuff manually?
