Network rendering

[Anonymous]

Dear colleges,

Did you try to render your huge animation on five or more computers in network in ArchiCAD? That is also a kind of teamwork...

I think the only way to achieve this is to render from frame 1 to 1000 on PC1, from 1001 to 2000 on PC 2, etc...

This would be fantastic. Here's to hoping it's not too difficult and that Graphisoft decides to go ahead with it.

Failing that, I suppose Cinema 4D will probably support it before long. They'll probably charge a bundle for it though since it would compete with their own network rendering solution.
