- What I forgot: You can see this synchronization taking place when carefully watching the top left screen. After this red tree-like structure it is out of sync and it takes some time until it gets back. To reduce network traffic and avoid a bottleneck here, the clients only talk once per second to the master.

- No, I don't mind at all :) Of course, the demo could have been better, but the artwork was just a one-week-quick-hack to show off the distribution just before Breakpoint. I would like to make a better one, if time permits :)
Basically, there is one PC per screen (well, actually two of the PC's are rendering on two screens each, because we did not had enough powerful PC's). These PC's are executing the same binary, but they have different configuration files each, which define which part of the big image to render. Simply speaking, each PC is rendering the same with just a different viewport setting. Additionally, there is a master which takes care about synchronization and is used to have easy control over start/stop etc. The clients are reporting to the master, which frame is currently rendered. If one is too slow, the master will detect this and tell the client to start dropping frames to get back on track.
I hope, this answers some questions, otherwise, just ask. - isokadded on the 2007-11-22 17:36:55
