    I have to setup an AE render farm using Smedge as our render distributor and am wondering if we need to purchase additional licenses for each and every machine on the farm? If not how do you register these so on AE installs that are render only type of machines that don’t allow access to AE’s gui?

    Also any tips on Font management and a farm would be helpful too.

    Thanks and Mooooooo!

    There are special acticvation tools on the Trapcode website for render nodes. I’m not sure if this is necessary for Particular, though.

    Thanks for that I found it. I looked before but you gave me that added push to check again knowing it would be there.

    For others there is a stand alone package for exactly this issue at the bottom of the tutorials page for Trapcode….

    Cripes, Now I have the same problem for Boris Continuum 3. I’ve searched there website and can’t find a thread or any info/software app that will allow me to register it for network rendering.

    It appears that just by having the various plugins sitting in the AE\..\plugins folder should be enough for it to work.

    Mylenium or anyone have experience with this.

    Man I hate plugins sometimes….

    Thanks,

    Never mind I had accidentally disabled AE as a module all together and now it works fine.

    Just need to install these plugs to local machines, no secondary authorizing needed.
