Problem with network rendering of Surface Spread

[Undersky]

As the title suggest, I'm having problem with network rendering of Surface Spread. Has anyone tried rendering with Deadline render manager from Thinkbox Software? I don't get any errors, it just ignores rendering my trees.

I'll try NET Render, but I'd rather not render using it anymore =)

are you using proxy 2?

should make no problems,
make sure to not use old proxies

Proxy 2 = check "Render Instances"? In that case, yep! The trees are all locally in the main file, no proxies, no xrefs. They are in the file and parented under the Surface Spread object. So it works when I render on my workstation, but not on the render farm when using Deadline.

I just checked the render output from ordinary NET Render and it works there. I have no clue why it wouldn't work when submitting with Deadline =/

Anyone?

please contact Jack the developer of surface spread then,
make sure you have his latest updates( i somehow remember even there was a fix in relation to net)

We just bought Surface Spread this week (or the last) so I hope it's the latest version. But I'll contact him. Thanks!

Do you use Editor Weight? Sometimes it justs doesn't render the 100% if you have a lower editor weight. So try setting it to 100% before rendering.
