[C4D] General Discussion / Re: team render
« on: 2020-08-28, 15:48:32 »You use Team Render just as you would with any other engine. Yes, Corona needs to be installed on all computers. You can run TR through "Team Render to Picture Viewer", or you can use the web server interface for Team Render (if doing the second, be sure to run the Corona Licensing Server).
Hey Tom,
probably this question has been asked... quite a couple of times. :)
However: I did my first Test with TR today and everything works fine.
BUT: the renders take longer with TR than only rendered on the host machine.
Host: Mac Pro 2019 / 16 cores / 48 GB RAM.
Client: iMac Pro 8 core / 32 GB RAM
I guess the culprit is the fact that I have run this test only over WiFi router... ???
I see that before a still render starts, the network takes some seconds to negotiate. After render is complete, it takes 1-2 seconds to "collect the chunks".
In a test-animation of 50 frames I made, it was difficult to judge, where the extra time came from. I guess also from sending data back and forth in the network?
Installing a local LAN-network would be the solution?
What do you guys recommend? 10 GB-switch is fast enough?
Thanks in advance & greets!
