Render Farms

[gts6]

Anyone know of a render farm solution for DAZ that doesnt require you to install and upload all your libraries there to do rendering. Looking for a way to use the farm to simply use their processing power to render, as if it were GPUs installed on my local PC.

The companies (serious...) that are dedicated to this, are normally aimed at professionals and with render engines of the same level: V-ray, Renderman, Arnold and a few other options.
If I set up a company for this task, with the expenses it has, I wouldn't even think about worrying about Iray when I was drunk. 😀
Look for:

half will not even exist today...

Thanks both of you. Yes, i've seen a few that i've looked at, and the way those worked is more like a "remote connection" type thing like renting high-powered VPS with serious GPU power. And you login remotely, install software you will be using, install assets(libraries) and then work from that computer remotely.

But I've also seen many that say they support a lot of the popular 3d systems, but not DAZ. But they do support iray. Is this essentially the same thing? I see no settings in DAZ anywhere to configure "passing off processing" to an external server, so I figured if it was possible a client software might need to be run or something that sits between DAZ and the server? Maybe im wrong and overthinking how it works

@littlepleasures I don't hate Daz, I just don't like Iray. As a free program it is great if someone can earn some money. I only use it to export models to other environments: They are ideal for having people with very acceptable geometry.

@gts6 Do some research on this: There is a tab under "render settings, advanced" which is a bit of a mystery to me. I have never tried it...

Thanks, that does look exactly like what I would need to use once I find a service. Im guessing any of those farms that support iray should work then, using this tab
