hi there.
i was wondering if redshift supports hqueue?
or any other altranative.
im trying to set a home farm.

i get this error when i try to run it through hqueue.

Are you trying to render on multiple machines or just batch render projects?
If the later. you could create a cmd file on your user folder (if you are working on windows)
with the following lines:

mread I

houdini/Jobname/hipfile1.hip
render -f 1 100 -V /out/beauty

mread I

houdini/jobname2/anotherhipfile.hip
render -f 1 200 -V /out/beauty

-f is for frame range
-V is for verbose

And then just execute the cmd file with Houdini Command Line:
hbatch NewBatchFile.cmd

I basically do that all the time at work to leave my machine rendering without having to set up a render farm, once you get used to it is super convenient. You don't even have to open Houdini to re-render stuff.

Hope it helps,
nico.

Would there be also a flag available for skipping to the next scene when the current errors? Or even better, restarting from last rendered frame?

Cheers

Hi Anyone getting this same error? It would be great to fix this on my brand new render node… that is just sat there… doing nothing…

Edit that. It was the .env file on the node. It didn't have the plugin information in there, fixed right away.
