Hello,
Since we have updated our workstations and render slaves to 4.4.0, most of the time the render slaves crash during the loading of the scene.
We receive the "unexpected error, the pipe has ended - error".
Strange thing: When we include the workstations in the network render, these machines render just fine, while the slaves crash.
We have copied all of the the forest pack maps to the max/maps directory of the render slaves and even replaced the FShader3.dll as suggested in another thread. Nothing helps.
