Well, a pdf quick guide in my opinion is not a good idea, because it may lead some people to overlook too many things and simply not read the main manual (it's amazing how many people can't read :wink: ). But a quick video showing a simple project submission on the Ranch would indeed be useful, and ...

Good suggestion, it's done

At the moment not everything is finalized, but high-level/on-site support will probably be limited to our country (France), with special contracts/formulas. Of course if there is a high demand from other european countries things could change...

As you have guessed, our hardware solutions are clearly for professionals and companies, not hobbyists, so reliability is as important as performance. 24/24 operations, etc, no cheap things, no prototypes, no overclocking, etc. It's one thing to build fancy/fun computers when you only have one or tw...

Hi everyone, I am happy to announce that, in addition to using the RANCH renderfarm for your external rendering needs, you can now also buy your workstations, mobile renderfarms and even a self-cooled multinode supercomputer - the RANCH Runner - from us. So whether you want to outsource your renderi...

Hi everyone,

just to announce that the RANCH now officially supports the latest stable release of Indigo, that is 2.0.12!

Fred

Hi Philippe (and everyone),

we are currently installing Indigo 2.0.12 stable on the RANCH. I will make an official announcement when it is done and tested, but yes, we intend to support Indigo 2

Nick, as I told you in my e-mail, the problem is in the .igs file (the Indigo scene), which in its current state cannot be processed by Indigo. Perhaps the problem is your Sketchup exporter? So the .igi that you saw is definitively _not_ valid. The render should have lasted several hours as you spec...

@ZomB the mac address problem was left from old code, I have removed it. You can redownload the .zip and it should work now. The false virus alert appears on some overzealous detectors is done because of the exe compression code. I have removed the compression code so you should not see the alert an...

Hi everyone, I am pleased to announce that the RANCH renderfarm image sequence player FRAMANIP PRO is now FREE! It works with XP and Vista and exists in 64-bit and 32-bit version. Sorry there is no version for the Mac, as the program uses many specifities of Windows/PC hardware, and porting it to th...

Ok, here it is: From April 13 (next monday) to April 30 (included) , we have a very special offer for all Indigo users: all Indigo projects will get a 75% discount! It means that if you render for one hour, you will pay for only 15 minutes! (if you render for 20 mn, you pay for 5, you get the idea :...

Hi,

Stay tuned!

Fred

Just to inform everyone that our new site for Indigo is online, go check it out!

Cheers

How do you find out that one?

That's a secret

Hi, I have good news: the layers support seems to be working fine. I have installed the latest Indigo we have on the RANCH so we are now ready to render projects created with the most recent Indigo versions. Two members of the forum (thanks guys) sent us scenes with several layers and the output was...
