Hello to all!

This is on render distributed with Cinema4D.

Is it possible to render with several nodes as in a cluster render with C4D across systems and technologies like iGrid of Apple?

Is it possible to use QShake to have nodes of several nodes of render for single frame instead of a node for each frame?

Is it possible to use other one interface to manage the render apart from NetRender?

Thanks.

yes it is possible,

although mileage may vary.

I have succesfully integrated aftereffects. cinema4d maya and lightwave in a cluster, using renderpal.
I would recommend it, because it supports many different render engines.

although not everything is as deeply integrated as it should. for maya and 3ds, after effects and nuke there are scripts to integrate them into the application, so you dont have to bother about switching interfaces to render into the cluster.

others like lightwave and Cinema4d still need such a plug in..

I am trying to make one that integrates C4D into RP.
