Hello,

Here is a test of animation :
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/zesly/video/scifi_demo.avi - DivX 5.0.5 - 1154ko

3 seconds, 76 frames. It tooks almost 2 days to render on an Athlon XP2600+.
The big problem is radiosity. An artefact would be different from a frame to
another so I had to render it with high quality radiosity.

I don't understand why this is much of a problem - the light 
distribution does not change much between the frames so you can just 
generate the radiosity data once and reuse it for the whole animation. 
A fly-through would be much more difficult.

the only reply possibel from my point of view would be :

WOW!

The only drawback on the animation is that it's not realy loopable.

Greets,

Now, if you could spare your computer for about a year I think you could
have about 10 minutes of something special ;)

Cheers,

Really cool animation. What did you use for modelling? SDL? or a modeller?

That's less than 40 minutes per frame.  I don't worry about render
times until I'm nearing the one-hour mark.

Regards,
John

I just downloaded and installed the newest DivX codec and I still can't
see this clip...

Hehe. Try http://www.imp.org :)

The last HiRes-rendering of our IRTC "end of..."-project had frames 
worth more than 15 hours of rendering on my Athlon XP 2600 :)
(I have to admit that it took some time to render it, even with the 
farm, though)
