This might sound weird. I have a scene with alembic files. There are chunks in the timeline which do not need to be rendered. For example in a 200 frames timeline I want to skip say 20-51 and then 110-167. I cannot do this manually as I will be leaving my PC to render overnight and to save the render time I do not want to render the redundant parts. Is there a way to setup the file so that I render the parts I want from the timeline?
I’m making a little movie with using multiple computers. I can't use the network so I've divided the frames of the animation over the computers. Unfortunately now there are frames missing. What I'd like to do is using 1 machine to render all the missing frames. For example: 4-24-35-64-143 but ideally in such a way that I don't have to re-start blender multiple times. Is this possible somehow?

Calculating extent of custom tiles? Problem  The picture is just an example of my case, but I am left with blank space on the left when I load all the tiles and I get error message in the console:   Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://path/to/the/tile//base/8/6/53.png  etc.     I could guess and limit the extent of the layer, but I would really like to know is there any way to calculate it and also be able to get rid of the error message.  What I know about the tiles?   Originally they are served as TMS They represent png images 256*256 They are in projection: EPSG:3857 In OpenLayers2 they were called like TMS layer In OpenLayers3 (v.3.8.2) they are called like XYZ layer (that includes -y):     var baseLayer = new ol.layer.Tile({   source: new ol.source.XYZ({     url: 'http://path/to/the/tiles/base/{z}/{x}/{-y}.png'   }) });   Thoughts and questions   How can I calculate extent of the tiles? Or in another words how can I find out zmin zmax xmin ymin xmax ymax or whole range of x/y?  What does x/y really represent? Are they coordinates of the left bottom corner or center of the tile? In which direction does x/y increase? How can I figure out x/y of at least one of the tile, for example left bottom one?    (I have modified the question for better understanding of the problem) I want to find a set of integer solutions of Diophantine equation: $ax + by = c$, and apparently $\gcd(a,b)|c$. Then by what formula can I use to find $x$ and $y$ ?   I tried to play around with it: $x = (c - by)/a$, hence $a|(c - by)$.     $a$, $c$ and $b$ are known. So to obtain integer solution for $a$, then $c - by = ak$, and I lost from here, because $y = (c - ak)/b$. I kept repeating this routine and could not find a way to get rid of it? Any hint?

However, since it's a protected question, I am not allowed to answer it. (I found this info from ).  Worth to mention, I can comment on the above question, just not post an answer.  I was under the impression that the whole point of association bonus was to bypass such limits, so why isn't that the case for answering protected questions? I have forgotten my keystore password and I want to install my apk on Google Play. What do I do? Does the following series have a closed-form expression:  $$\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{z^k}{(k!)^2}$$  I know that it must converge because:  $$\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{z^k}{k!} = e^z$$  and the $(k!)^2$ denominator obviously increases more quickly than the $k!$ denominator.  This problem came up in computing the probability of a draw in a football match with each team's goal scoring modeled as a Poisson process.  Thanks,  John Can the notion of vector space or algebra over a field be meaningfully extended to fractional dimensions, so that for example $\mathbb{R}^{-2/3}$ makes sense? Has this been explored somewhere?  I know that super vector spaces can be thought of as one way of generalizing vector spaces to negative integer dimensions. Is there a similar concept for dimensions that are rational numbers? I'm not talking about Hausdorff dimension, because it doesn't allow for negative rationals, and I'm rather looking for extensions from a more algebraic point of view (dimension as the trace of the identity map), without recurring to a given metric.
