"After the announcement on the
Indigo forum that the RANCH supported
the latest stable version of Indigo,
I immediately converted my current
3D scene to test it! Having some experience
with other renderfarms, I found the
RANCH very easy to use, with very
attractive prices, and various payment
formulas (Blitz, Make Your Price...)
really adapted to professional use.
Quality is excellent, and with the
new Indigo features (light layers,
lens shift...) post-processing becomes
really easy. Last but not least, the
64-bit architecture of the RANCH offers
near-limitless possibilities for rendering
very complex scenes in high resolution.

"[...]I let it run today using
the Ranch's paying service. I must
say I'm impressed. This was a really
difficult scene to render on my quad
(it took two days and wasn't very
clean in the end). I let it run for
only 15 min and it reached an SPP
of 2400 (resolution was 2400x1800)
[...] the noise is still very acceptable
fur such a complex scene (about 2m
polys, multiple glass surfaces, lots
of reflections, zillions of alpha
maps, sun-behind-glass, etc.) and
the cost very reasonable (I ended
up paying about $70).
Anyone who's selling their images
should definitely consider this, I
think! " |

"I've been running a few igs
thru the Ranch and so far it works
great, no problems encountered and
it seems nice and simple to use...
I am amazed at the speed of it. I
have one render which I was never
able to finish, the longest I let
it render for was 4 days... I put
it thru the Ranch, 15 minutes and
it was up to 16000 spp, it took one
resume to finish it off and its done...
I wish I could give some more critical
feedback but it all works as expected
so far... Really nice work guys, unfortunately
I can see myself spending too much
money getting renders done quickly!" |

"I'm sure lots of people have
said it before but well, I'm gonna
say it anyway: "Just tested it
and it's freakin' awesome! [...] Just
tested the resume rendering [...]
It works like a charm. This feature
is really helpful for any big .pigs
project" |
