Render Queuing Improvement
Billsbrickz started this discussion in Suggestions and Ideas

Hi,

Can we implement a change for render queuing please? I appreciate some people render animations at high quality but it hogs the render farm making it impossible for anybody else to use for sometimes over a day. As a paying customer I would also like the ability to render at least once in 24 hours, its becoming a little frustrating.

Could we possibly have slots so if somebody were to render an animation with say 120 images, there could be a free slot every 5 or so?,
If there was no queue it could carry on to the next slot if that makes sense? It would just make it fair for every other user. Could we not have something like this -

[SLOT 1] Animation
[SLOT 2] Animation
[SLOT 3] Animation
[SLOT 4] Animation
[SLOT 5] FREE
[SLOT 6] Animation
[SLOT 7] Animation
[SLOT 😎 Animation
[SLOT 9] Animation
[SLOT 10] FREE
[SLOT 1] Animation
ETC

Any thoughts on how we can improve going forward would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Billsbrickz,
The issue yesterday was not due to the queue system which actually implements a similar approach to the one you described.
The software handling the render queue crashed and projects were simply pilling up as they could not be rendered.

Hi Scrubs,

Many thanks for getting back to me and good to know. I wasn't aware that there is already something in place similar to the above but that's awesome.

Keep up the great work.
