  • Single job: to make a non-cooperative render queue with each node working on an independent frame.
  • Cooperative job: several computers work on the same image, which will be merged at the end of the process.
  • Animation job: select a scene and the frame range, and the frames will be distributed among the available nodes. Remember that you can also render single frames from the same sequence by using a semi-colon “;” when typing. For example: 1-10;12;20-23 This will render frames 1 through 10, frame 12, and finally frames 20 through 23. Any padding number is allowed.
  • Batch job: This option allows you to select multiple scenes to be rendered. All the scenes are rendered using their own settings and output paths. You can perform changes in the rendering settings (render time, SL, resolution, camera, etc), and this these changes are applied to all the scenes added. An interesting feature is that in this mode you can choose the Batch Type, between Cooperative type (all render nodes work together in the same scene before starting with another) or Single type (each render node renders a scene separately).

Tip

First make some simple tests in your network before attempting a real project or final rendering to ensure that all the Render Nodes can connect and the output is written properly.
