Hi,

I'm running into troubles with network rendering.
I'm using 3dsmax 2012 and backburner, Vray 2, GrowFX 1.8.6 and GrowFX Rendernode 1.8.6

On some computers, rendering work fine, but on several others I got this message at 3dsmax's launch : "This file was created by a newer version of GrowFX".

I'm using tree models I made with GrowFX 1.8.0.



Thanks for reading

Hi,

Most likely you've not installed on all machines the latest version of GrowFX rendernode.
Please check what version is installed on machines that give this message?

Cheers

Hi Eduard,

the versions are the latest, but I finally found the problem.
Some trial versions were previously installed and then uninstalled, but it seems that the directory (C:|Programs\Exlevel\etc.) has not been completely deleted.
As the rendernode is installed in the same directory, maybe there was a kind of conflict ?

So : I uninstalled rendernode, I then manually deleted the directory Exlevel\GrowFX for 3dsmax etc. and reinstalled the rendernode.
Seems now to work.


Thanks.

Yes, the GrowFX demo version conflicts with any other versions...

PS: We need to add the uninstall of the existing version before installing the new version.

Cheers
