Render Farming Capabilities in CS3? 2004-02-12 - By Andrew Turner
Back What if you only want to render a single file (animation)?

I had something closer to the AfterEffects model, where the elements of the render farm watch a specific folder for batch files to turn up, then execute them, saving the final result back to the requesting machine. This with a batchfile generator (to break down the master batch file into elements, either individual frames or blocks of frames) would get you there. Crude, but should work.

It would be interesting if the Batch rendering function could be instructed to send frames to different computers.
I wonder, though, how this could be efficient with a setup such as mine - G5 2x2 256 and a G3 400 768... oh, and a PIII 1.2 380...

In theory it is doable, for animations, Carrara has proved to be a very adaptable tool. It is on my list of things to try when I have spare time (stop laughing everybody, please, the last time I had spare time was.....) This project requires some limited programming (mostly to build the job stream) and a certain amount systems work. Fortunately much of the support structure is available through OpenSource.

I was just curious if CS3 supports render farming. I know it has multi-thread capabilities to take advantage of multiple processors on a computer while rendering, but I couldn't find out any info in the manual re: render farming to other PCs? Is this doable or is this a CS4 wish list feature?
Thanks.
