RENDER FARM SUPPORT?
It is possible to use Element on a network render farm but we do not recommend or support it because of inconsistencies of in GPU rendering. Since Element renders with impressive speed on a single GPU it is ideal to pre-render any 3D elements before pushing them to the render farm.
