I am having a real problem using the network render node option. Everything works great until the render node attempts to do one of the small odd sized nodes found at the far right of the projected image (as in the image). It works just fine when it does a full sized 128 x 128 block in the middle of the image, but if it happens to try to draw one of the odd sized nodes on the far right, it simply locks up the network. The entire network is locked and the only way I have been able to restore it is to reboot. I can shut down and restart C4 on both machines but they will not talk to one another and I cannot see the other machines even using Network Neighborhood.

I thought it might be the plugins so I re-copied all the main computer extensions files and sub-folders over to the render node and that did not fix it. By the way, I am running C4P, 4.02 on Win XP Pro boxes, and yes I do have the firewalls turned off as well as all the virus protection software when I am running this.

Has anyone else run into this problem? Any thoughts on what to try?
