Rendering using more processes
HI everybody. I would like to know if there's a way to render an animation using more processes, i mean, like -j make's options. I would like to run moho in 2/4-way machine, or using www.openmosix.org and www.openssi.org. And I would like to know if there's a way to batch render many files. Thanks.

There is no way to use more processors - each render runs in a single thread. There's a GUI batch mode - select "Batch Export" from the File menu.
We've been thinking about adding a command-line rendering mode too, but I can't tell you when that might happen. With a command-line mode, and a little bit of shell scripting, it shouldn't be too hard to run multiple rendering instances to take advantage of multiple processors, or even control multiple rendering machines over a network.
