cant rendering animation with object dissolve

[fabian-pok]

Hi Guys,

I've made an animation in witch the objects are animated with object dissolve. If I render it on 1 computer it gets stuck in the scene setup after rendering some frames. If I render it on the farm, several nodes will stay at 100% rendering after 1 succesfull render and they stay on it.

Is this normal? Is there a sollution for this?

I think you are using bnr? Sometimes I get this.

It's also when I use rendering in layout. It just stops when it starts to render a second frame. The only way I'm able to solve it, is to copy my object dissolve settings to all the transparecy surface settings of that object.

That sounds like a bug. Could you post a scene so we can check it please?

Thanks. The scene is too complex to hunt down the bug. Could you simplify it and leave only necessary objects. Also did you check if the bug happens also in raytrace only mode? Or is it only happening in TI?

I trashed all the images in the scene and then it renders fine when using object dissolve. It happens in all the diffuse models. Rendering with layout native is no problem. When I render it on a mac UB it renders, but stops sometimes.

I tried to simplify the scene, but then I cant reproduce the crash as often. I reanimated the scene without using object dissolve and I succesfully rendered it last night. So this problem has no priority.

I uploaded scene with images to:
