What is MSD Fast NetRender

MSD Fast NetRender is a additional application to the MSD Pro.

It has two main purposes, the first one is to use many computers to calculate rendering values to accelerate rendering time.

The second purpose is to create automated batch of rendering process.

The principle is very simple,  from a MSD scene, a Renderfile is created instead of a normal rending bitmap.

Then the Renderfile is added as a task to the MSD Fast NetRender Client.

When the Client start rendering, it will use all the computers running the MSD Fast NetRender Server application.

For example if one computer is used and rendering takes 10 minutes to be completed, the same rendering done in MSD Fast NetRender will roughly take 1 minute if 10 computers of the same processing power are used.

So in short, the more computers on the network using the MSD Fast NetRender Server the faster it will be.

Using several computers to do the rendering is commonly called "Render Farm".
