| I cant say for sure as i don’t know how the system works... But i guess next to little... In the case of missing textures in render farms and network renders its more of an annoyance... As you have to make the dummy texture. The dummy would only be a few kb as its really just a .tga .png .bmp with a few black pixels.
But if you mean an image sequence... just load the sequence file... Max doesn’t check beyond that so it wont run the image files if there not there.
Its just an annoying bug that max doesn’t always totally disassociate texture maps that are no longer in use. IE like texture bakes that have been removed from the models materials... |
