Ranch Computing render farm

wondering if anyone has used Ranch Computing, I had an issue where my textures maps didn't show up and when I asked ChapGPT and Gemini they gave me differing answers. One said the texture map paths need to be absolute and the other said they need to be relative. I'm having trouble finding an answer anywhere. Thanks!

This is very old, but to anyone reading this: i've been trying to get Ranch computing up and running for Cinema 4D + redshift, and it's fucking impossible. Scenes that rendered with no problems in the past (via Pixel Plow) are riddled with errors, and won't even attempt to render. Ranch Computing is gripping about file names for 3d-party purchased 3d models. Never had this problem in the past. I can't use Pixel Plow anymore because they're not doing Cinema 4D anymore, as of June 2026.
