Does anyone know where I can find instructions on the setup and use of Bryce Lightning? Have looked and cannot find anything, and all that comes with it are installation instructions. Thanks.

Nevermind....found it finally. Just in case, this is how it is done: [quote="madmax_br5"]To render using lightning, go to file>render animation. If you are rendering an animation, select your movie settings. If you are rendering a still frame, select the option for pict (mac) or bmp (PC) sequence. At the bottom of the screen that pops up, click the bubble for render on network and click configure. Open bryce lightning on all the computers you want to use to render. You will see an ip adress, add this to the list on the main computer. Once all of them have been inputed, click "update." A green light next to ech one means you are good to go. If you are rendering a still, select "tile optimization"at the bottom. If you are rendering an animation, do not select tile optimization. If you are rendering on three or less computers, select "use host to render." If you are rendering on a larger network, deselect this option to free up processing power on the main machine.

Has anyone found a way to use two HD on the same PC? Looked but I do not see a way to designate different drives, only IP's.

Two HD on the same computer won't make a difference. Its the CPU that does all the work.

Yeah, the only thing a hard drive does is store things.

Now if you meant 2 CPU's on the same computer I've heard a tale that you run lightning and the host program on the same comp each will use 1 CPU. I can't vouche for the validity of that statement :)
