Here’s the error I keep getting: =Įrror: 3dsmax: Failed to load max file: 'C:/Users/wxrender/AppData/Local/Thinkbox/Deadline8/slave/wexrf04/jobsData/58ffa04e7c1fc05428ee26ee/simple.max'ĥ 12:16:58 DBG: Starting networkĥ 12:16:58 DBG: Calling NetRenderPreLoadĥ 12:16:58 DBG: in NetWorkerPreLoad. I double checked and the file is using the default scan line renderer and outputting to a png sequence. I’ve made a very simple test scene with a sphere, 2x lights and a camera animating over 100 frames.The Manager app reports it has connections to the Servers.I’ve checked and there’s incoming/outgoing TCP/UDP Firewall rules allowing all traffic to the Server app on each render box.Manager app running on a separate computer and the Server app running on each render box.All render boxes have 3DS Max 2017 and Backburner 2018 installed.We have a specific corporate distro of 3DS Max that DOES NOT include Backburner so I installed it from the standalone install. Hi all, I’m trying to get 3DS Max 2017 working on our DL 8.0.17.1 farm.
