The problem of generating node images with onscreen mode

[ETHRuiGong]

I follow the instructions of preprocessing instructions to generate the node images. And I use the onscreen mode. However, too many of the generated node images are just fully black images or sometimes the random screen shot of my desktop. Is there any others encountering the same problem?
Could you please give me some suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Yes, others have also reported similar issues (e.g. #18) and I'm not sure why this occurs. I'd recommend using offline mode if possible.

Hello,

Thanks a lot for your advice!
However, when I compile the SUNCG toolbox for the offscreen mode, I encounter the problem as following:

make[5]: Leaving directory '/srv/glusterfs/gongr/SUNCG/toolbox/gaps/apps/scnview'
make[4]: Leaving directory '/srv/glusterfs/gongr/SUNCG/toolbox/gaps/apps/scnview'
make[3]: Leaving directory '/srv/glusterfs/gongr/SUNCG/toolbox/gaps/apps'
make[2]: Leaving directory '/srv/glusterfs/gongr/SUNCG/toolbox/gaps/apps'
cd vc; make mesa
make[2]: Entering directory '/srv/glusterfs/gongr/SUNCG/toolbox/gaps/vc'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'mesa'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/srv/glusterfs/gongr/SUNCG/toolbox/gaps/vc'
Makefile:32: recipe for target 'target' failed
make[1]: *** [target] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/srv/glusterfs/gongr/SUNCG/toolbox/gaps'
Makefile:18: recipe for target 'mesa' failed
make: *** [mesa] Error 2

I am not sure why the makefile should compile the "vc" folder since the "vc" is for visual studio. I am wondering whether I can just comment the line "cd vc; $(MAKE) $(TARGET)" in makefile.

Thanks a lot!
Best regards
