WOULD I start a renderfarm with Carrara? I have before by using multiple computers at crunch time. Using the batch render option and telling each computer to only render so many frames as sequential stills. Then dropping them together onto a video editers timeline. Render and voila! Added sound and everything. BUT... it was a pain to manage, if a computer went down, figuring out where to restart, etc... A true renderfarm has a computer parse out the work and do all the managment of files so that when it is all said and down it is completed as FAST as possible, and everything is in one place instead of spread out all over the network. I, for one, am looking forward to that one feature alone! :D
