Hi,

My first post here so please be kind - hopefully this is the correct group
and the question hasn't been answered recently (I did try searching for
related topics)

Ok, I am running a dual 1Ghz linux box and was wondering if there's any way
to fully automate rendering scenes? I know I could run two instances of POV
with the top and bottom halves of the image but since I'm playing with
radiosity and I also like the mosaic preview, is there any way to basically
double my render speed and keep the preview / ease of use? I'm currently
using a shell script to render with the options I want so adding a bit to
that wouldn't be too bad. Any help is appreciated,

Cheers,

Tom

PS Anyone with suggestion on what to add to an "Aztec temple at sunset"
picture let me know :) It's currently a bit basic (stepped pyramid on bad
grass :)
