- I can't get any of the rendering packages to render (e.g. 3DReality or
- Appsoft's Perspective beta). I've tried Andrew Stone's thing with
- setting up my site as a renderer using NetInfoManager and also the
- followup someone posted using Demos/RenderManager. Neither do
- anything, though I now have two choices in the render option window that
- pops up in each application. I can select either, and nothing happens.
- No error, no jump in load, nothing. Insty-rendering works fine, just not
- the photorealistic.
-
- I expect I need to do some sysadmin'ing to get it going, but I have no
- idea what. I'm running 3.0 (obviously) on a standalone site connected
- via SLIP to the CS dept. I've used HostManager to set my site name
- to jabberwocky, but apart from that and the messing described above, I
- haven't touched any of the sys admin apps at all. I didn't setup a printer
- (I don't have one) and the 3.0 install was a clean rebuild. I think I'm
- working from a "virgin" setup - at least as far as NetInfo is concerned.
-
- Any ideas are appreciated.
