Distributed rendering.

Hi.

Does Octane support distributed render.?

Is it possible if you you have several machines to use the GPU og these computers.?

Sorry if it is a newbie question. But I am completely new to octane.

What we do to get all our computers working on the same shot at once, is set them all going manually... rendering to a specific number of samples... and save out the images, then in a compositing application adding them all together and dividing by the number of images

using this "split rendering" method: if you use pmc you may also vary the direct_light_importance (and maxsamples accordingly); depending on the scene this might lead to a better result; still, because of the random nature of the raytraced samples, this method is not quite the same like rendering all samples on one machine - hopefully you are aware of that...
