Is there such thing as Free Network Render servers for Bryce? I know that Bryce 5 now has the ability to do network rendering, but my network only consists of 2 computers :( so i'm kinda outta luck for that. Do you know of anybody that would be willing to do network renders for free? Thanks to anyone that replies :)

What exactly are you asking for? To show your work? I would love to show your work and post it on our site if that is what you are asking? Sharen

I thought that was what a network renderer was for, 2 compu ters or more working on a render project so you could keep working on your primary image?

That is what Bryce lightning does thuffner3, you can also render across the internet if firewalls and all that crap doesn't come into play, during beta testing it worked very well.

You'll probly be hard pressed to find people with computers willing to give you render time. Problem is most of them are in here too, watching the hours or days go by for their own renders. You could see if some freinds might let you install lightening on their systems and render across the net using their ip addresses. Hopefully their static cable modem types and not dialup. Other option is to buy one high clock cpu like a 1.2gig AMD or better and plenty of ram. Everything else cheap like a minimal video card, no sound, 20 gig or less drive. For a monitor just plug your main monitor to it long enough to set up. Network them together. (If your lucky you monitor will accept dual input) That way you can reboot, do other work or anything on your main system and barely notice the 4 days stated to finish on the other render dedicated box. I figure for $400 american i can set up a minimal system which ill be doing in febuary.
