Question about animation render - Polyloop

LoneGunman · 30th January 2006, 19:18

Can it be paused (same question for a single frame render too), saved and resumed later ?

If yes, how (?), cuz I could not find it in the manual, or I'm just simply blind, hehe

I have animation in progress right now with 480 frames, it seams like it's gonna take 48 hours to render

My UPS unit died recently, so, i'm kind of worried,

Thanks.

try to use the batch queue, so you can perform pause

Also, consider rendering to frames too. That way if you lose power, you only need to restart from that frame onwards instead of the whole animation as if it ruined an .avi or .mov.
