I'm a bit confused as to what's possible or not possible with this release.

Could someone tell me whether this version is capable of producing animations/flythroughs using multiple Intel MAC Pro Q Core?

I'm thinking of Arch Viz uses and animations that might have typically 50,000 frames to render.

Are there any quality limitations with this release as compared to MAX 9? Light Cache? etc etc etc...

Thanks in advance.

yes sure
you can make all kind of animation

lightcache and all GI types and all is the same as on max.

only DR and proxy objects arent supported in v1.0 but we already work on that for next update:-)

also via NET

cheers

Hello All,

the animation interpolation is possible on all Intel CPU.
About PPC, ChaosGroup is finalizing the saving of the lightcache (in ppc the bytes are swapped) and will send me the update soon.

But.. you can't render over the netrendering the accumulate GI because must be in the single file... but it's a lot faster to calculate the gi pass for stepped frames.

So, on your setup, you can do that.
