Subject: Render Cow is Sick

 I have an image that renders fine internally but doesn't render properly on the render cows (appears washed out) and I can't figure out why.  I've checked every possible setting I can think of but nothing corrects the problem.

Here is the correct image:

And what the cows bring home:
When the cows come home

The scene uses global radiosity and I got a message saying motion blur must be turned on (which it is) and other than that, all settings for the internal render and the cow are identical.  I've also tried many different formats (tga, bmp, tiff) but that didn't change anything.

I can't think of anything else to change or check but I must be missing something.  Also, the render cow time seems to short (23s) whereas the internal render is 2m30s.  So the cows seem to be grazing too quickly before coming home.

Has anyone seen this problem?

I'm also having the same problem rendering other scenes with render cows so its not just this scene.  I just tested with the Vue sample scene "Peaking Through" and got the same problem (no radiosity in that scene).

Any ideas or suggestions?  I've used the render cows before with little problems ever so I'm puzzled why this is happening.
