Graphic math.

1 Gateway Laptop with an Athlon XP3000M processor

1 HP zd7000 with a P4 3.06 ghz processor
+
Bryce Ligtning 2.0

= A mini-render farm on your desktop.



The concept works and seems to be working quite nicely.  It should definitely have some nice applications in case I need some extra power sometime for a comic or something.  The only problem I can see is not a problem with the process but a problem with Bryce itself at this point.  Volumetric atmospheres are still to slow to be usable at this point.  I'm gonna have to play around with this for a while. 

There is definitely potential here...you can literally do the snapshot effect that I mentioned to [livejournal.com profile] gomichan  with it...the deciding factor of course comes down to pure power...and how much of it I have available.
