Powerful, High-speed cloud render farm for Cinema 4D with Redshift render

Cinema4D is a  powerful 3D modeling robust software, developed by MAXON computer, based in Germany. It gives an extensive suite of tools that aid 3D artists to give amazing results. Cinema 4D is proficient of procedural and polygonal modeling, texturing, lighting or rendering. In this modern, fast-going world where 3D production is so in demand, this program stands out and is very trustworthy for the artists who are professionals as well as beginners both.

And Redshift is a powerful GPU-accelerated renderer, built to meet the specific demands of contemporary high-end production rendering. In other words, Redshift is tailored to support creative individuals and studios of every size. In fact, Redshift offers a suite of powerful features and integrates with industry-standard CG applications. And Redshift has added Cinema 4D to its growing list of digital content creation (DCC) tools which support its rendering engine. Over the past few years, more and more Cinema 4D designers are using Redshift for rendering and dramatically speeding up their render times thanks to this renderer.

If you are going to find the solution – a render farm for Cinema 4D with Redshift Render, you should read this article. Let’s get started!

Redshift 3.0.12 has native support for Cinema 4D noises and deeper integration with Cinema 4D, including the option to define materials using Cinema 4D’s native node-based material system.

Cinema 4D noise effects have been in demand within other 3D software packages because of their flexibility, efficiency, and look. Native support in Redshift means that users of other DCC applications can now access Cinema 4D noises by using Redshift as their rendering solution. Procedural noise allows artists to easily add surface detail and randomness to otherwise perfect surfaces. Cinema 4D offers 32 different types of noise and countless variations based on settings. Native support for Cinema 4D noises means Redshift can preserve GPU memory while delivering high-quality rendered results.

Redshift 3.0.12 provides content creators deeper integration of Redshift within Cinema 4D. Redshift materials can now be defined using Cinema 4D’s nodal material framework, introduced in Release 20. As well, Redshift materials can use the Node Space system introduced in Release 21, which combines the native nodes of multiple render engines into a single material. Redshift is the first to take advantage of the new API in Cinema 4D to implement its own Node Spaces. Users can now also use any Cinema 4D view panel as a Redshift IPR (interactive preview render) window, making it easier to work within compact layouts and interact with a scene while developing materials and lighting.

Below are the information related to what hardware and operating systems are required for Redshift to work properly. Please make sure that your system meets the requirements listed below to make full use of these software powers.

Redshift is supported on:

• Microsoft Windows: 64-bit Window 7/8/10 or higher
• Linux: 64-bit distribution with Glibc 2.17 or higher.

MacOS with Nvidia GPU: Sierra (10.12) or High Sierra (10.13)

• 8GB of system memory
• Processor with SSE2 support (Pentium4 or better)
• For Windows and Linux: NVIDIA GPU with CUDA compute capability 3.0 or higher and 8GB of VRAM
• For MacOS with NVidia GPU: NVIDIA GPU with CUDA compute capability 3.0 or higher and 8GB of VRAM
• Single GPU

• • 16GB of system memory or more
  • Core i7 or Xeon equivalent, 3.0GHz or higher
  • For Windows and Linux: NVIDIA GPU with CUDA compute capability 7.0 or higher and 8GB of VRAM or higher. We recommended a NVIDIA Quadro, Titan or GeForce RTX GPU for hardware-accelerated ray tracing
  • For MacOS with NVidia GPU: NVIDIA GPU with CUDA compute capability 6.0 and 8GB of VRAM
  • Multi-GPUs

Since the recommended Redshift specifications suggested above, iRender provides 3 types of multi-GPU-servers (6x GeForce RTX 2080 Ti / 6x RTX 3080/ 6x RTX 3090) which are the most effective for Redshift rendering in multi GPU cards coming with the following configuration specifications:

The servers’ configuration of iRender not only surpasses the minimum hardware requirements of Redshift, but it also exceeds the recommended requirements above:

• Redshift supports multi GPUs on one machine, increasing rendering performance multiple times. This is one of the main reasons we recommend these 4 packages for designers to have flexible choice based on their budget and time.
• These package uses Nvidia GPU cards with a VRAM capacity minimum from 11GB up to 24 GB, which completely exceeds the Redshift recommendation of an Nvidia GPU with CUDA compute capabilities 7.0 and 8GB VRAM capacity or higher.
• A RAM capacity of 128GB (server 5, 6) and 256 GB (server 7,8) is many times higher than recommended.
• The Dual Xeon E5-2673 v3 processor has also completely met the CPU requirement from Redshift. Although Redshift mainly depends on GPU performance, some processing stages that occur during post-processing also depend on the performance of CPU, disk or network drive. These include extracting mesh data from your 3D application, loading textures from disk, and preparing scene files for GPU. Depending on the complexity of each scene file, these processing stages can take a considerable amount of time, and as a result, lower-end processors can bottleneck overall rendering performance. Thus, CPU is also considered as one of the criteria that cannot be ignored.
• In terms of operating system, iRender currently provides services with two operating systems: 64-bit Windows 10and 64-bit distribution Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS with glibc 2.27, ensuring the recommended operating system that Redshift offers.

We have tested rendering on all 4 servers to give you a better overview of the power of each server. Please watch through the video below:

Let’s take a look at Redshift benchmark table when rendering in iRender’s 3 cards packages:

To sum up, using redshift to render your Cinema 4D projects is fast, using iRender’s 6-card GPU servers is definitely a lot faster. These servers are the ultimate online solution for Cinema 4D rendering allowing up to multiple, powerful 6x GeForce RTX 2080 Ti / 6x RTX 3080/ 6x RTX 3090 GPU. These servers are the premier solutions to maximize your advantage when you need it most – to win the project, to meet the impossible deadline, or pivot your visual direction with unparalleled speed. Depending on your budget and your time, let’s pick one server to experience a new level of rendering.
