FR Distributed Rendering n backburner


#1

Hello,

im using 15 pcs to bake the scene through distributed render. i have to do all manually if there are more scenes to bake. I did not found any option like using backburner to manage all the rendering and doing distributed rendering simultaneously .

Is there any option doing both things at the same time ?

No there isn’t. I may be wrong, but I don’t believe I am. I haven’t used DR for a long time, but back when we still only had 1-2 core CPU’s, you had to do whatever it took to speed up frame renders.

Essentially FR manages the network during DR, on its own, for a single frame. Backburner is largely for assigning multiple nodes for multiple frames. It can do split frames, but I’m pretty certain you have to use one or the other…not both.
