Usage
Quick manual to use network rendering:
- Export your scene in binary format (.bcf)
- Open PyLuxCoreTool on your master computer by selecting LuxCore Network Render in Blender or via command line
- Click "add job" and select the binary luxcore scene (.bcf)
- On the client computers that should do the rendering work, open pyluxcoretool and choose "netnode"
- Click "Start node"
If you want the master to participate in rendering, do the steps for a client there, too (open pyluxcoretool a second time).
Installation on MacOS
python3, pip3 and PySide2 need to be installed.
The plugin assumes python3 is available from /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/sbin.
If you have an unusual install you can add symbolic links. If you don't have Python3 installed the easiest method is:
brew install python3 brew install pip3 pip3 install PySide2
If you're using pyenv and also have a brew install you may need to do
/usr/local/bin/pip3 install PySide2
