hola rodrigo gracias por tu respuesta, funciona perfectamente, era tan simple como marcar esa opcion, yo marcaba send to shared folder y mandaba las texturas a una carpeta en red, y no habia caso....
muchas gracias nuevamente fue de mucha ayuda tu tutorial

Anyone have problems with this on OSX? Chaos don't seem to be getting back to me!

Does anyone else notice that DRSpawner is using massive amounts of CPU power? I have it installed on two dual-core computers and its taking up 50% of the CPU resources on each. Just wondering if this is by design or is it a bug.

Yes, it's exactly what it should be doing - making use of your CPU to render.
-
But that is without a render being started. I figured it would run idle until Vray calls upon it to start rendering. I figured I could leave it running on the slave computers but it seems like a lot of cpu strain for no reason.

That ... is not normal... I have not seen that behaviour. I'd recommend you contact ASGVis Support.
-
Ugh.. I mean ChaosGroup USA - which is their new name. I can't get used to the change of name.

i have EXACTLY this issue.
i even posted about it on the old ASGVis forum, before it got changed to chaosgroup...
(this is mine, but i can't find the asgvis forum link anymore (surprisingly))if anyone had any idea, about what's going on, i (we) would be glad.
rspierenburg, what OS and CPU do you have? i have the same issue with a 32bit Vista with Intel C2D SL9400 and 64bit Win7 with Intel C2D E8400. or is it maybe with the installation? (1.49.01)

Rodrigo, Thank you ! for that great tutorial. I've cut the render time in half

Your welcome, How many computers are you connecting?
-
I connected with a LAN cable a notebook (4 cores) to my MacBook Pro (2 cores).
I don't know if it should be like that, but the second pc kicks in only in the rendering phase, meaning that in the LC calculating phase it's only my main pc working.
Oh, and I did have some problem with the textured geometry, that came out rendered as solid color. It took me a while to figure out that all it takes is to check the "Asset Collection" box. Maybe you could add that to the tutorial.
btw is it better to use LAN connection rather wifi? -
Added "asset collection" settings to the tutorial.

That depends on your wireless connection, if you have the same speed as your wired connection is the same thing. If not, the wired connection, most of the times is much faster than the WI-FI connection.

LAN is better than WLAN. Even if you have a WLAN with good speed, it's less reliable - random drop in connectivity etc.
-
I thought so... for example the LAN Cable that I'm using is CAT5e 1000 Mbps. I don't think that Wifi can beat that... (?)
BTW did someone tried to render IES lights with DR Spawner ?

It's not even about speed - it's about reliability. Just a minor drop in connectivity which you might not notice while browsing can cause havoc for your render.

I'm trying to run a DR render on two mac. Unfortunately, during the rendering, it is used only computer's master processor. Below is the content of the window (10.0.1.19 is the address of the customer):

Very good point.
