    Need- save generation at a point... switch off -> continue at later rime... possible?

    Sorry, in title its later "time" not rime... Hi in short... We have electricity load shedding then I lose my rendering work (hours of work) because I cannot seem to find the place where I can save what were rendered already and continue with the next startup of my computer. I only see pause which does not work for shut down and restart at a later time.
    Am I doing something wrong or is there a workaround?
    Love 3dF Zephry!
    Thank you so much

    Hi Berend - It's not possible to pause processing then shutdown/restart and then resume exactly where you left off using Zephyr.

    Processes need to be completed (for example, a dense cloud, or a mesh generation) then you can save that project file (.ZEP). Once you have saved a .ZEP you can shutdown/restart, then reload the .ZEP when you like and continue working on the project.

    Depending on the size an fidelity of the project some processes might take more than 24hrs - If you have issues with the power to your computer I recommend getting a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) which will keep the PC running even if there is a powercut.
