Choose how you submit
One account gives you three ways in, and you can switch between them at any time — the work always lands in the same queue, at the same price.
The three ways in
|
Channel |
Order of the stages |
Systems |
Software |
|
Web console |
Upload → submit → analyze → render |
Windows, Linux, macOS |
Everything we support — 3ds Max, Maya, Blender, Cinema 4D, Houdini, Unreal and more; the full list is in Software guides |
|
Desktop client |
Submit → analyze → upload → render |
Windows, Linux |
Everything on Windows; on Linux only Maya, Houdini, Clarisse and Katana |
|
Plugin |
Analyze and submit only |
Windows, Linux (ships with the client) |
3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D and Blender only — Maya on Windows and Linux, the other three on Windows only (see the plugin page in the client) |
Start with the web console
1、Sign in to the console.
2、Upload your assets first, then submit, analyze and render.
Note: best when the machine has no 3D software installed but you still need to submit a render.
Start with the desktop client
1、Download the build for your system — Windows or Linux — from the download page.
2、Install it, then sign in with the same account you use on the website.
Note: submitting depends on a local project, so the 3D software has to be installed on your machine.
Start with the plugin
1、Install the desktop client: the plugin ships with it, nothing extra to download.
2、Sign in, then open your 3D application. A Fox Renderfarm entry appears in the menu bar — for 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D and Blender.
Note: if the entry does not appear, install the plugin manually from the plugin page in the client.
Note: the plugin runs inside the 3D application but only analyzes and submits — rendering still happens on the farm. The matching 3D software must be installed locally.
What you see on each side
1、Web console — the stages run down the left rail: Overview, Assets, Submit, Analysis, Rendering, Statistics.
2、Desktop client — the stages run across the top as tabs: Analysis, Upload, Render, Download. The Plugin page sits on the icon rail at the left.
FAQ
Do the three channels cost the same?
Yes. Same account, same balance, same price — only the way you submit changes.
Is there a macOS desktop client?
No. macOS uses the web console, which needs nothing installed.
Can I switch channels later?
Yes, at any time. Jobs from all three channels land in the same queue.
