Which cloud rendering system to use?

Thanks,

Do you have a Cost Estimator for Still Image using 3DS Max and VRay ?

Well no, simply because it would never be precise enough to be useful . It could be doable but not accurate.

It is extremely difficult to predict the render time of a still image as it depends on many different factors, particularly the repartition of the complexity in the image (if a small part of the image concentrates most of the complexity of the scene, efficiency will be severely reduced, but there is no way to know that beforehand).

However, we can say that we are roughly 100 times faster than a good workstation. For instance, if your still takes ~24h on your PC (standard/good configuration) it should take around 10 and 30 minutes to be rendered on the RANCH.
Please keep in mind that the RANCH is much faster for animations, especially big ones

Oh, I only asked because you have Still Image Estimators for Maxwell and Indigo Renderers.

But thanks for your reply.

I would like to try your service but do not see a €50 trial in my account (I have registered and verified my account).

I understand. We have developed our own rendering system for Maxwell and Indigo projects which are unbiased software. We can only determinate accurately the rendering time of a still for Indigo and Maxwell projects thanks to a benchmark scene used as a reference.
Regarding the free trial, customers have to ask for it, as indicated in the manual.
Anyway I just created your free 50€ refill, you can use it whenever you want!

Hi everyone,

just a quick heads-up to let you know that from October 1 to October 31, the RANCH is more affordable than ever!!

Prices have been dropped from 1.5 cent to 0.9 cent per GHz-H (-40%!) on the Sapphire formula! Higher priority formulas like Emerald (from 2.0 to 1.4 cent, -30%) and Ruby (2.5 to 1.9 cent, -24%) are more cost-effective in october... don't miss this great opportunity!

Also, feel free to have a look at our SUPERRENDER PROMO with Chaos Group itself: http://www.ranchcomputing.com/fr/news/special-offer

Should you have any inquiries, feel free to contact us.

Cheers.
