Forest Pack and missing maps

[Ricardo Eloy]

This one is a bit odd...

 

Everytime we render an animation through our network, some machines seem to fail loading the maps associated with Forest Pack Pro objects, even if we instantiate them.

 

We are using Backburner (I know), and the funny thing is that most machines render the maps just fine (I even used Resource Collector to make sure every needed map was in the same place and set said directory as an alternative bitmap path on Backburner), while some simply can't find them at all.

 

This happens when we use vertical gardens mostly (the ones that come as presets).

 

Any thoughts?

I used to have this problem, just be sure to install forest pack correctly on your render nodes and works station.

I use the script relink bitmaps all the time, but for anything itoo I do not relink those assets.

It seems that when you redirect those link the plugin gets confused.

I just leave the missing asset warning and they render fine...

not sure why, but when I relink all the asset to our main textures HHD I get missing maps and problems.
