current version of royal render is 5.6.82
there have been losts of xsi 6.01 improvements that would benefit you guys. (check the release notes)

but what you are seeing sounds like an xsi issue not a RR issue?
no reference models?
is the render farm all the same version of xsi? (AND is RR calling the same version?)
is it bouncing randomly or always back to 0,0,0?

also
render frame set is currently unsupported by royal render?

I have an object, type geo to be exact, which seems to enjoy jumping around frame to frame.

I have 6 passes and the same object bounces around on different frames for each.  I checked the render nodes, and it does it on all of them. We're using Royal Render 5.6.5.  The geo is frozen, I have plotted the SRT's and removed any constraints etc...  What gives?  Seems that the studio I am presently at had a similar problem on there last big job, so it wasn't a surprise to them.  Anyone else having this problem?

I don't have this problem when I render locally.  So I have to go back and render the bad frames, and there are a lot of them.  This sucks.

On a positive note, the render by "frame set" is a really great added feature, so it's a little less painful than doing it by hand - frame by frame.
