Anyone tried Yellowdog could render farm yet ?

They've called me a few times and I'll probably give them a go soon but just wondered if anyone had any feedback about the experience ?

Also, they pay you for being a server host so I recommend getting in touch with them.

Seems interesting.
Would that means that I would be able to leave my computer rendering for others and earn points and once I need to render my stuff it would use from those points?
Any chance we could end up with free renderings because we share our resources upfront?

How about plugs and software versions for consistency? Seems a bit risky to have 400 frames rendered on 400 different systems.

Im using them now, cant fault the customer service. Will post again once all done.

[Sbrusse]

Nice, so plugin wise etc everything works?

Yes so far, there was an issue with the pre calced LC not loading properly but they fixed it right away.
The final proof is in the finished frames, so lets see

It's early days for this company it seems so there can only be improvements if they remain conscientious.
