  • Another technical Net Render question!

    Posted by Simon Hutchinson on October 22, 2008 at 9:08 am

    I have a ppc g5 and a boston render node. If i build my scene in G5 is it possible to fire scene to boston render node to complete without using any resources from the G5 and avoid any potential floating point issues?

    I bought a 3DBOXX and just hate windows so much I would rather use my G5 than the more powerful BOXX.

    Thanks,

    Jethro.

    If you have Cinema installed on the Boxx you can just open and render the files there. I do that between my laptop and Work station a lot… never seen any issues beyond fonts not being installed or plug Ins. Just save a project file so you get all the textures in the same folder.

    I have a boxx but i don’t want to build my scenes in windows. I want to build them on a mac and then send them to be rendered on boston render node running windows.

    If i intsall c4d r11 on my mac and install net render on the boston render node running windows will i have any issues, or can the node just pump out the scene despite the fact that the scene was built using OSX?

    I hope this makes the issue a little clearer.
