Hello everybody,
I'm having a problem I hope someone can help with. You can see it easily in the image provided.
On the left and right is the mountain as we expected to see it, in the middle is a slice that rendered out dark for some reason. All are from the same project file, with the only difference being which machine rendered the slice on the farm.
This image was rendered on our render farm, with an animated Crop region to split the image into slices per frame. This is not the only slice that rendered dark.
The dark slice was rendered on a slave with 8 CPU's and taking 1h21m to render, which is about what we expected for render time.
The slices on the left and right were rendered on 24 CPU machines.
The 8 CPU machines don't always render dark, these two just happened to have been rendered on those.
It was resubmitted twice, each time that slice rendered dark. I didn't record what machine rendered those previous also dark slices.
Has anybody run into this problem before and know how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
