# Mainnet

## Overview

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important Information**:

1. 🌐**Mainnet page**: [app.pictor.network](http://app.pictor.network/)
2. 🧩 Roles: Join as a **Creator, Worker** to earn points. You can also take on both roles to earn even more points for bigger rewards in the future.
   {% endhint %}

## How to Participate

### General Guide

Getting started is easy. All roles follow the same steps as follows:

**Step 1: Sign Up**:\
Visit the [app.pictor.network](http://app.pictor.network/), and choose one of the following methods:

* **Sign in with Google:**\
  A keyless Aptos account is automatically created for you within Aptos Connect.
* **Connect Aptos Wallet:**\
  Use your Aptos wallet (e.g., Petra) to sign in directly.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important Notes**:&#x20;

1. The Keyless Aptos account created via Aptos Connect is directly linked to the Google account you use to sign in. If you lose access to your Google account, you will also lose access to the associated Aptos blockchain account.
2. 🔐 To keep your account secure, we strongly recommend **enabling Two-Factor Authentication** (2FA) on your Google account.
   {% endhint %}

**Step 2: Choose a Role**\
Select whether you want to join as a **Creator or Worker**.

* **Creator**: Go to the **Rendering** section, submit Blender rendering jobs for Workers in the network to process.
* **Worker**: Go to the **My Workers** section, set up your Worker nodes, and start contributing your GPU power to the network.

**Step 3: Start Earning Points**\
Complete tasks based on your role:

* **Creator**: Claim free credits or buy credits to submit jobs and earn points for every job rendered successfully.
* **Worker**: Earn points based on the tasks you have rendered and your Worker Nodes' total online time.

**Step 4: Track Your Earnings**

View the total points and rewards you have earned directly in your dashboard.

### Creator Tutorial

Follow this [detailed tutorial](https://docs.pictor.network/docs/services/3d-rendering/get-started) to get started.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important Notes:**

1. **Free Credit**: To claim free credit from the daily check-ins, you will need APT to cover the transaction fee.
2. **Point Formula**: Render Cost \* 2.2
   {% endhint %}

**Notes:**

* **Performance Multiplier (P)**: Each GPU has a different Performance Multiplier (24h). The more powerful your GPU, the higher the multiplier, meaning more points per hour of online time.
* The list of supported GPUs may change based on performance, stability, or network conditions.
  {% endhint %}

#### **b. Step-by-step guide**

Follow this [detailed tutorial](https://docs.pictor.network/docs/gpu-providers/workers/get-started) to get started.

#### **c. Earning Breakdown**

<table><thead><tr><th width="400.272705078125">Task</th><th width="275" align="center">Point </th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Render</strong>: </p><p>Install, run the Worker app, and render assigned tasks</p></td><td align="center"><span class="math">{\footnotesize \displaystyle\frac{\text{Completed Tasks} * \text{Render Cost} * 4}{\text{Job's Total Tasks}} }  </span></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Online</strong>: </p><p>Install and turn on the Worker app, but do not render tasks</p></td><td align="center"><span class="math">{\footnotesize \displaystyle\frac{O * P}{24} }</span></td></tr></tbody></table>

{% hint style="info" %}
**Formula Symbols Explanation:**&#x20;

**O: Online Time -** Time that the Worker Node is online, but does not render tasks.

**P: Performance Multiplier -** Based on your GPU’s Blender benchmark score.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Example**:&#x20;

Let’s say you have a dual-GPU device:

* An <mark style="color:yellow;">`RTX 3070`</mark> with a Performance Multiplier (P) of <mark style="color:yellow;">`2.4294`</mark>.&#x20;
* An <mark style="color:yellow;">`RTX 5090`</mark> with a Performance Multiplier (P) of <mark style="color:yellow;">`10.6878`</mark>.

You spent:&#x20;

* 6 hours online, but not rendering  (<mark style="color:yellow;">`O = 6`</mark>)

Your points for that session are: <mark style="color:yellow;">`Points = 6 * (2.4294 + 10.6878) / 24 =`</mark><mark style="color:yellow;">` `</mark><mark style="color:yellow;">**`3.2793`**</mark>

<summary>🔹 How can I run a Worker node on Pictor Network?</summary>

You can run a Worker node in two ways:

1. **Worker App** (*Windows only*)&#x20;
2. **Docker Image** (*Ubuntu Linux & Windows with NVIDIA GPU*)&#x20;

Visit our [detailed guide](https://docs.pictor.network/docs/gpu-providers/workers/get-started) to get started.

<summary>🔹 Can I run more than one Worker node under one Pictor account?</summary>

Yes, you can run **multiple Worker nodes** using **one Pictor account**.

<summary>🔹 My worker desktop app is running, but not receiving jobs — what should I do?</summary>

If you use the Pictor Worker app, you must manually **install Blender** to receive rendering tasks from Pictor.

To fix this:

1. Open the Pictor **Worker App**
2. Go to the **Settings** tab
3. Select a Blender version (we recommend the latest) and install it
4. After installation, click the **Detect** button so the app can recognize Blender

Once detected, your worker will be ready to receive tasks as they come in.

<summary>🔹 Why is my Worker rendering with CPU instead of GPU?</summary>

In some cases, your Worker automatically switches to **using the CPU instead of the GPU** to render a task. This results in significantly lower performance and longer render times, negatively impacting workers' experiences.

Possible Reasons:

* **Weak GPU:**\
  If your GPU lacks sufficient VRAM or does not meet the minimum compute capability required for certain render tasks, Blender may fall back to CPU rendering.
* **Tasks containing Python scripts** (<mark style="color:yellow;">**`.py`**</mark> )**:**\
  Some tasks include Python scripts (e.g., for customizing materials, animations, or rendering logic). These scripts are not yet supported by the GPU rendering pipeline, and such tasks will automatically run on the CPU.

* We are continuing to investigate and will provide appropriate solutions in upcoming app updates.

<summary>🔹Why does my Worker app display the message "Worker MAC address exists?"</summary>

Each Worker is linked to the MAC address of the device it was first registered. This means a single device can only be associated with **one Worker at a time**. If you're trying to create or connect a new Worker on the same device, the system will detect that the MAC address is already in use and show this error.

To fix it:

1. Go to the app dashboard
2. Navigate to **My Workers** on the sidebar
3. Find and **delete the existing Worker** that uses this MAC address
4. You can now connect the new Worker to this device
