After using RenderPal extensively in a project environment, I would like to recommend the software to fellow artists so you can try it for yourselves.
RenderPal is a Render Farm Management program by Shoran Software. Anyone rendering out image sequences will find it invaluable in their workflow. It has added speed and efficiency to my workflow by allowing the submission of scenes to a server to distribute the rendering workload between several CPU’s. (jobs submitted via the RenderPal Remote Controller and each machine accessed via Remote Desktop)
Basically the software connects multiple PC nodes or clients to a server machine allowing for distributed rendering, either on a single sliced image or a full animation sequence with multiple compositing layers. Several renderers can be used at any one time from the wide list of supported renderers available including Mental Ray, finalRender and V-Ray. This allows several artists to submit scenes through ‘Net Jobs’ to their chosen renderer without the restrictions of their software. RenderPal also allows for custom renderers.
The software is compatible with many leading 3D packages including Maya, Softimage, Lightwave, Cinema 4D, 3DSMax and is therefore ideal for companies with multiple software packages and renderers in their pipeline. RenderPal is not restricted to 3D as there is support for various compositing packages including After Effects, Shake and Nuke.
