One of the most useful features of Maxwell render is the ability to resume a render at any time, as long as you haven't changed anything to the MXS scene file and you have kept the MXI file of the render. You can stop the render if you wish to render something else, and come back and resume the previous one, it will continue from where it left off, continuing to increase the Sampling Level.

 

Warning

Do not change anything in the original MXS file or the resume will not work properly. You may get two different renders that look like they are overlapping.

Excerpt

Resuming a network render

Add a network job as usual through the network wizard and if Maxwell detects that there is already an MXI in the output location with the same name as the output specified when adding the job, it will ask you if you wish to resume the render.

 

Tip

In addition to the regular resume functionality, there is also the possibility of "progressive animation rendering", please see the Progressive Rendering Workflow page.
