Hi,
I’ve complained about this in the past, but the issue remains.
Almost every time I submit a multiple task job to RM the first job renders fine and as expected. But the 2nd (or final, depending) renders an old version of the scene.
I have no idea how this happens. It seems impossible.
It’s possible that this happens depending on different workflows (ie; if I submit while the scene is open, or if I submit from a closed file). But I use both these workflows often and it’s entirely possible that it happens both ways.
When I say old version I mean that the materials are from a previous days work, objects are where they used to be, etc. The new stuff hasn’t come up at all. It’s as if Pulze is fishing out an older submitted job and confusing it for the new one. And again, this never happens to the first render/task, only the second or third etc ones.
Last time I complained about this I was dismissed pretty quickly, but it’s a pretty major problem that requires me to re-submit and re-render very very often. I don’t know if others are experiencing this issue. It’s lasted months, 6+ at least, so across multiple versions of RM and SM and even 3DSmax.
Any investigations into this would be very appreciated.
