Hi everyone
It would be very useful to have a server where you can send .pov files for them
to render and then download the images generated. Maybe using e-mail: you send
the pov files as attachments, the server reads the e-mails, renders the files
and sends you the images back.
Is there something like that existing? Is it free???
THX in advance
- Nicolas

Do you know something that uses Windows? I had some problems downloading Cygwin.

I actually envisioned a system like this accessable via web. The idea was
to build a smallish cluster of about 8 machines, each running at no less
than 3GHz with at least 1Gb ram. The one that was to be the master would
also be running apache with php module and mysql. Registered users would
be able to upload complete scene files (to include ini to ensure that it
renders correctly), and check the status of jobs through a web interface.
My goal was to actually finish some of the scenes I've started using both
scattering media and radiosity. You can get some very realistic scenes by
trying to imitate how things actually are, but it becomes intolerably slow
when all you have is a 650MHz desktop and a 2.66Ghz laptop that must run at
50% duty cycle (otherwise she'll overheat). In any case, I've started
looking into a way to build it since space is an issue. I started the php
interface, but I have no eta on when this machine will actually be built
since the hardware is fairly expensive. Sometime in the next 2 weeks I'll
be building a new machine specifically to do some oc experiments, and if I
can get it stable and fast enough that might save me on the hardware...
To answer your question, I haven't seen something like that out there yet,
and if I did it, free users would have probably have a cap on how many
proccessor-hours they could use per month, or something similar.
Cheers,
Reactor

I'll check it tomorrow.
Something like this would be cool:
http://www.whatever.com/render.asp?w=640&w=480&file=http://www.myserver.com/myfi
le.pov
So that it returns a JPG/PNG/GIF.
