Title: distributed render on nodes, not on masterPC
Post by: Naxos on 2018-06-05, 09:25:36

Hello there,
I'de like to render across the network on slaves nodes using distributed render, but not on the main / master PC, so i can continue working on it.
Is there any way to do that ?
regards.

backburner is the only way imo. some people said 3rd parties handles it better, but i have no experience with them.

- using DR from workstation without getting the host rendering is planned for future version AFAIR. But no ETA.
- using BackBurner (for example), you can submit to one machine that will act as DR master, spawning other nodes through Corona DR Servers. This way, your workstation doesn't take part of rendering.
