Since there are almost 90 other people in the same office I have to try and look busy. Clean my desk, ummm... or maybe meet with someone about next project.

 

By the way. Eu sempre ficou supreso a ver tantos brasileiros (e portugeusos) aqui. :winkgrin:

 

trans - I am always surprised to see so many brasilians (and portugeuse) here.

i use cinema 4d, so when it's rendering i just continue modelling as per normal.

unlike max, cinema 4d's architecture is such i can do this. i can even test render at the same time if i want. all this without noticable performance loss (shed load of ram helps tho)

I just chat on mirc, aim, or check the various forums while she renders. (A huge advantage of dual monitors...watch on one, do other stuff on #2).

 

Btw if you do have a dual proc machine, you can allocate one cpu to max copy #1, and the other cpu to a second max copy, and continue to model while rendering.

 

Its not as efficent as C4D's system, but its still possible.
