Log files can contain additional debugging information in case of issues.

Warnings and errors from the render and operator machines are shown in the Server log in the UI. Note that not all warnings and errors are critical or even relevant.

Note that the log files are cleared when the server and Vantage are opened.

The Server log file is located in %AppData%\Local%LocalAppData%\Chaos\Arena\arena_server.log. It also includes the full V-Ray AppSDK debug log, and the Vantage logs from the render and operator machines (apart from debug messages).

The full Vantage Renderer log files are located in %APPDATA%%LocalAppData%\Chaos\VantageArena\debugarena_renderer.log .txton each rendering machine.
