Is there a way to queue several jobs to run on my one computer while I'm away from it?

Shure!

Start maxwell manager and maxwell server.

Just use network rendering, render with your computer without Co-Op, set either the wanted time or SL, when the first render has reached that number it will start with the next one in queue.

ok, thx, that's kind of what I figured...will have to read the manual some on how to access MW Manager and Server...I know it's in there.

setup your scene ready for render (save path rendertime SL ML etc..) and save

crate new txt document
type in

c:\maxwell\mxcl.exe -d -mxs:"c:\scene..\bla1.mxs"
c:\maxwell\mxcl.exe -d -mxs:"c:\scene..\bla2.mxs"
c:\maxwell\mxcl.exe -d -mxs:"c:\scene..\bla3.mxs"
..
c:\maxwell\mxcl.exe -d -mxs:"c:\scene..\blaX.mxs"

save txt and rename to"whatever.bat"

run the bat

refer mxw manual - comand line render

You can do it through graphical interface too. FYI.

for some reason could not get the batch file to work...will try that again when I have some more time. However, I was able to get this to work with using the Maxwell Manager and Server....my computer has been running non-stop . Thx for the help.
