Hi, We've got a render farm set-up with six 64MB 100 MHz Pentium systems connected to the Novell the network. One monitor and keyboard are shared between all six systems. Occasionally, 3DS stops network rendering and displays a prompt, e.g. do you want to go through the partially recorder FLIC? Why this message appears is for another time 🙂 However, when the message appears, 3DS tries to display the mouse cursor. If you haven't got a mouse connected, it crashes with an exception error. Is there a work around? I thought about trying to see if there was a little PC utility that emulated the mouse via the keyboard. This would probably work. Regards, Rob @ Mirage Ltd.
