Below is a list of relevant job status that will tell you
what’s happening at each stage;
Initializing
To make sure that your data is secured, we utilize a transferring server. This server, first of all, encrypts project files before distributing them to our render servers. This process might take longer if you are submitting larger files.
Rendering
This label shows your project rendering. You can see the results in the RenderShare folder. All rendering results are simultaneously synchronized to your machine. You can also see the progress within your user panel.
Suspended
As a user, you can suspend your job whenever you want. Our
system
can also put a hold on rendering if you run out of Boost
Points.
When a render job is suspended, it means no new task
will
get started but already running task within the render farm
will
be rendered entirely and charges will be applied.
Failed
There are lots of technical reasons that can cause a rendering to fail. If you see the “Failed” status, kindly contact us using the report button. You can also use the live chat support for a quick assistance and troubleshooting.
