Create Rendering Job

  1. Go to the Rendering section, click the Start Rendering button under the 3D Rendering feature.

  1. Choose the 3D software you want to use for rendering your project, and click Render Now.

  1. Choose the New Rendering Job button.

  1. Upload your project files

On the 'Source Selection' page, choose the Upload button to upload your data by folder or file.

Then, select the uploaded render file (e.g, the .blend file), and click Next Step.

  1. Configure Render Settings

  • Information: Add a Job name and Job comment, and choose the Software and its Version.

  • Scene Parameter Settings: Select Render engine, Render device, Output format, Pre-test frame, and Render frame.

  • Resolution: Choose between HD, FHD, QHD, 2K, 4K, and 8K.

  • Render Setting: Configure Frame per node, Timeout alert, Timeout analysis, and Timeout stop.

Then, click Next Step.

  1. Configure Network Settings

  • Select the Worker Location.

  • Select the Hardware configuration: GPU manufacturer, GPU model, GPU number, and RAM.

  • Select Pricing Tier: Tier 3 – Trusted Partners, Tier 2 – Prioritize productivity, Tier 1 – Cost optimization, or NO TIER.

Then, click Next Steps.

  1. Configure Payment Settings

Select either Coin or Credits to pay for the rendering services.

And click Next Steps.

  1. Check the Summary page

Review your job settings and configurations.

Check the Task Distribution graph to see how the rendering workload is distributed across GPU farms and which farms will handle specific frame ranges.

Then, click the Submit button to submit your job.

Monitor Rendering Progress

You can track your rendering jobs in real-time, with a detailed breakdown of each frame status (enqueued, processing, or success).

Review Results

Based on our extensive experience in 3D rendering, we have observed that while 95% of tasks are rendered correctly, there is a 5% chance of inaccuracies. To address this, Pictor employs an additional layer of quality assurance. You can review the render results and confirm which frames are rendered correctly to accept and which frames are rendered incorrectly to request re-rendering.

Download Results

After the rendering job is completed and you have accepted it, you can download the final results directly to your device.
