 This isn't just a robot competition, it's not robots driving robots. It's people driving robots, and teams of people who have put a lot into making the robots work. - Gadget470 [more] |

Re: Render farm
We simply installed 3Ds Max Design on all the computers. It automatically installs Back Burner. We then started the Back Burner server (make sure you put the managers IP in correctly) on all the computers and the manager on the last. We then got the all the servers to connect back to the manager and we started submitting jobs. If you want to be able to control the jobs better you need to set up the Monitor in the same way as you did the servers (point them all to the managers IP)
We have it set up so that each computer render a frame each. I would have set it up using BOINC but I didn't have much time and I didn't have full administrator access to all the computers until yesterday. @Jeff 801: What kind of machines have you got running? Thanks, timytamy |

Re: Render farm
If we (I
 ) do an animation next year, I'll definitely ask about doing this. We have about 45 P4s that I can use overnight  |
