If you only plan to use the current computer as a rendering node, it may be best to install V-Ray Standalone. Below, we have assembled data for every 3D software tool with V-Ray support. When buying a new computer, you may wonder what V-Ray system requirements are. V-Ray can be adjusted for any task, for a project of almost any size, and produce fast and realistic results. It is popular in architectural visualization, animation, motion design, and VFX. I think your workflow isn’t going to be that easy as there is no way to export V-Ray Standalone or submit jobs to V-Ray DR from within Cinema4D (Only Arnold, Redshift and Octane) Cinema 4D - Deadline 10.1.13.Chaos V-Ray is one of the most versatile and widely-used rendering engines in the modern 3D industry. If you’re only using DR and don’t need to schedule the jobs then you can do without Deadline, just leave the DR running on the nodesīut if you want to submit to a machine at a certain time, or schedule machines to be able to render (when others aren’t using them) then Deadline will be necessary. If you want to submit via Deadline then yes, it needs the ‘Worker’ running on the machine to be able to launch the DRĭepending on how you are set, and what machines you are using, I’d install V-Ray on the machines you want to use and launch the DR outside of Deadline.No, unless you submit Cinema4D commandline job with V-Ray (requires C4D CMD licenses).You need render licenses for V-Ray (sounds like you have these) and Deadline (for every DR machine).I’d test C4D with V-Ray DR outside of Deadline so you know it works ok.Have a nice Sunday and thanks a lot for your help. It would be great, if you could help me to understand the whole process a little bit better. Is this right?ĭo I have to install the “Repository” as well on my workstation or how does it work?ĭo I have to install the Deadline client on every render node, although it is using DR rendering? Is it possible to send from my cinema 4d, which is on my workstation, the job to the render server?Īnd if yes, I understood, that I have to install in my cinema 4d the “DeadlineC4DClient.pyp”.

As far as I understood, that shouldn’t be a problem, should it?ĭo I need any extra licenses for my server or the clients? So far I have one cinema 4D license for my workstation and for every render node a vray license. I am rendering with cinema 4d and vray 5 with mainly using DR. So it would be great, if you could help me with the following questions: So far I installed on now computer the Deadline Repository, Worker etc. My workstation should be able to taken away from the network so that it is not involved in the rendering process. I would like to achieve the following set up: Having one computer as render server and a few computers as clients in one network. I am completely new to Deadline and really hope, that someone could answer me some questions, so that I will understand the whole process a little bit better.
