Hi Gunnar,
I see your point, thanks for clarifying. I'll
certainly have a go at it soon, although it seems
pretty intimidating at first glance!
good luck,
Mark H

Hi Mark,
i dont think RS network rendering is unreliable,
but for long sequences and tons of textures i
had it quite often that some random crashes
happened.. when this happens overnight and i´m
not in the office there is no chance that real
will render on.. but with drqueue exactly this
is what happens.. it rerenders missing frames
and so if i return in the morning everything is
fine.. most of all full frame distributed
rendering is in many cases much faster then box
rendering.. i already had speedups of 200% which is dramatic..
setting it up for the first time takes of course
quite some time, but for all other boxes it
takes me 15minutes here, thats much better then
staying in the office overnight to check if the rendering is still alive..
btw. drqueue rendering also works with
boxrendering.. you just need to be aware that
then you have to tell drqueue all pc´s are
single cpus and then tell real to render
dualthreaded... its a bit confusing but it works
best regards
Gunnar
