Hi Jonas, >> What version of Vapor are you using? When you rerender the same project file on the slave machine, but having the machine in Master mode, are the results the same? Is Vapor_i.axp local to the slave's process directory? It's (3D) Smoke version 1.0. All 4 networked machines (in slave) render the material incorrectly, including the original master (we use netware lite with each machine mapped as different drive: D:, E:, etc). They are consistent in the incorrect scale across all 4 machines! I rendered from the slave machine that holds the control files in master mode and the material renders correctly. It seems to occur only while in slave mode, and not with every project. I checked and it's the same date and file size for every version of the SXP file. It seems to happen more often with large (> 100K faces) projects which have had a lot of merging going on… Is there a more current version? Thanks, KJG, LFA -Kevin Gilson
