Could WineHQ be used to run Windows software as rendernodes?


Hi, I'm doing 3D computer graphics and I was asking myself if it's possible to do network windows rendering with software like Luxology Modo, Autodesk 3ds Max, Newtek Lightwave, etc... To do this rendering Windows software has to be able to connect via LAN.

Try it and let us know. I don't see any reasons why it shouldn't work. Unless it's using RPC to communicate.
