I have written a tool that sets up the needed Vray settings before submitting to the farm. The problem is that if we run out of licenses because too many people are using it locally, the settings aren't set, and nothing gets rendered because we are saving out of the Vray frame buffer to make sure we get a cryptomat. What I would like to be able to do is query whether a license is available, and if so, then make the changes and submit, and if not, tell them to try again. I tried a work around by making the changes, they querying to see if the save out of frame buffer is turned on, and if so, sending it to the farm, and if not, telling them to try again. Stuff is still getting sent to the farm that isn't saving out nor having the correct changes, yet nobody is getting the errors. Max seems to be giving me a false positive on my query.

Any advice?]]> V-Ray for 3ds Max :: General Dstinct https://forums.chaosgroup.com/forum/v-ray-for-3ds-max-forums/v-ray-for-3ds-max-general/1002098-can-you-query-available-licences-through-max https://forums.chaosgroup.com/forum/licensing-forums/licensing-general/1002097-license-server-command-line-interface Wed, 27 Jun 2018 13:36:55 GMT
We're building a monitoring solution using Telegraf, influxDB and Grafana, which looks like an approach that's quite common across the industry. This allows us to aggregate performance and capacity data in a single location where the whole environment can be monitored from. One of the parameters we want to track is the amount of total/free/used licenses per product. I imagine we could get Telegraf to run a command line query getting that info from the license server, but it looks like these stats are not supported by the lic server? Would be great to have them.

It's was recommended to go back to a previous version of V-Ray until this issue was resolved

What issue might I run into if I uninstall version 3.60.03 & license server 5.1.1 and install 3.60.02

Basically - i've not used DR for a while - but fired up my DR machine today and launched the spawner - only to be faced with a variety of errors ranging from the attached one - to the usual simply not working at all or reporting anything...
Managed to get things working by turning OFF the firewall on my main machine (where job and Vray Liscnce server run) - all seems to be OK then. Tried 'resetting' defaults on Firewall - so it pops up asking if Max can accept connections when you run 1st DR job - I chose 'OK' on both public and private networks - but it still does not work

Only way I can get it working is to disable Firewall on my main machine - nothings changed (except new internet router) - help - i'm going nuts! What do I need to do re Firewall settings - i'm hopeless with Windows...]]> V-Ray for 3ds Max :: Problems ripe https://forums.chaosgroup.com/forum/v-ray-for-3ds-max-forums/v-ray-for-3ds-max-problems/1002075-distributed-rendering-woes https://forums.chaosgroup.com/forum/licensing-forums/licensing-problems/1002063-vray-license-problem-help-required Wed, 27 Jun 2018 11:05:01 GMT Hi I am having issues with getting my Vray for Max License, spent a couple of days trying to resolve this and also contacted support yesterday but...

Every time I'm importing texture using Asset Editor then Finder/browser window does not disappear after choosing proper file and hitting a button. Window goes back, so after short time I have about 30 windows opened... I'd appreciate any comments how to get rid of this issue.

we have a MaxScript tool that runs a process when the render finishes by adding a #postRender callback to the scene. The problem is that when using distributed render the callback is executed by all the machines that help on the render task. Is there a way to identify from MaxScript if the machine executing the code is the host or one of the slaves so we can run the process only once?

We are mainly using VRay 3.6 on Max 2017 at the moment.
