      Hello Sketchup Experts - I am an IT manager for a small architectural firm and wanted to find out how to setup a small render farm for Sketchup. I have a bunch of older but still capable PCs running Windows 7 x64. Is there a way to combine them all together in a farm to render Sketchup models more quickly? If there is some kind of online guide showing how to do this that would be ideal. Please let me know, thanks!

        The answer depends more on the Renderer than on SketchUp. Which one do you use?

          I'm not sure what you mean, it is all done within Sketchup as far as I can tell. Is there a choice of rendering engines when someone goes to do it?

            We use Sketchup along with the iRender plugin.

              I don't know the program, but a quick search reveals this:

                  I have not used this one, but probably worth a try...
