CGRU Forum

Hi Timur, the solution is pretty simple: We need a field where we can set the "project path". Then you need to add to the render.exe the command "-proj "project_path". mayarender -proj "project_path" -r file -s 779 -e 779 -b 1 -cam "camera_name" -rd "...

Hi, maybe anyone can explain to me if this is a general Maya issue with the command line rendering or CGRU is causing this? I have a Maya scene with referenced scenes. In the Reference Editor I had to set manually the paths to relative by using ../ Locally it works fine. All references will be loade...

Hello, we are using CGRU with 22 computers and a 1Gbit Network. I am actually doing tests with different packages and EEVEE to figure out the efficiency. I realized that submitting a job will cause all PCs to load the scene from our fileserver at the same time which has a significant impact on the r...

Restarting all machines seems to solve the issue. When it happens again I'll be back. Thanks!

Yes. But now we have another issue. When I set all 22 PCs to sleep one failed to sleep (get stuck). And when I try to wake up not everyone will wake up. Even when I connect with AnyDesk CGRU shows still "offline". It looks like the Afrender task needs to be restarted.

We solved it. CGRU seems not to support "magic packets" (Win10/11). Turning this off in the adapter will let CGRU wake up our PCs now.

Hi,

thanks for the info.

Does CGRU send Magic Packets?
