[chrispy] "Heh Bart, is it really that fast...I mean the Shake's rendering speed. How does it compare to Combustion's rendering speed assuming both run on same hardware specs. "
Shake is in an entirly different class from Combustion. Regular Shake users consider it to be faster than Flame (fastest Mac/PC vs. fastest Octane). Add a four or five Mac/PC rendering farm and Shake can actually outperform an Inferno. We estimate Shake to be roughly twenty times faster than After Effects on the exact same hardware. The more complex the comp the bigger the difference. And quality is even better. What can I say, it's really an amazing piece of software.
