I'm so disappointed: How could lady Crestbraid forget her manners? What horrendous language!

This gives a strange sense of deja-vu. He's in love till the next victim?

I know it’s not so obvious, but tjis time he has the excuse of being the target of a “love” charm! Anyway, who could resist the charms of a forest nymph!

I bet he doesn't need a love charm to go full force on any female.

Maybe what he needs it to find the true love, so he wouldn’t look at other women anymore.

I doubt that's possible. He has an attention span of a hamster.

Director: CUT! You can't talk like that as a paladin. Now take it again after the deja vu line.

First thing I did to 'test' my new setup was to load and render this in iRay. I recommend a ton of RAM and a decent CPU to even make the attempt (I have 32Gb).

GrandSACHI In reply to Catweazle01 [2017-12-18 18:42:47 +0000 UTC]
I think that 16 Gb of RAM is really what's limiting you. I found with my old computer that 24Gb is OK most of the time. Now with 32 Gb I really have room to render pretty much whatever I want (it's not rare though that during a render, DAZ Studio hits > 20Gb of use by itself). The only thinks that my computer couldn't handle even with its 32Gb of RAM was the Alter Rock by dglidden. Trying to render this on in 3Delight bombed in less than a few minutes because of overRAM uses, and I'm even not sure that 64Gb would have been enough. Then I realized that everything in that scene used high level of SubD and setting things at base resolution fixed the problem!

GrandSACHI In reply to Catweazle01 [2017-12-16 15:27:23 +0000 UTC]
Or you use 3Delight!
That's one of the reasons why iRay is not a viable option when doing graphic novels!

Catweazle01 In reply to GrandSACHI [2017-12-16 15:45:31 +0000 UTC]
yes. We all know this meanwhile. You will need months to finis graphic novels in iray ...
Even in 3DL this is too much for my graphic chard too
Your images have a high quality and your novels are very professional!

GrandSACHI In reply to Catweazle01 [2017-12-16 16:57:08 +0000 UTC]
Thank you.
what you really need with 3Delght is sufficient RAM, and a capable CPU. Now with 32 Gb I’m OK, although sometime I feel it’s a little limiting. Also, using AoA’s advanced lighting allows for UE2-like quality with much much shorter render time!

the problem is only with content from this vendor: howie farkes.
I am still not able to work with harpsburg ...
i have 16 gb ram but my graphic card is old: gtx770

GrandSACHI In reply to Catweazle01 [2017-12-17 22:56:39 +0000 UTC]
I see what you mean.
My work around for that problem would be to "group" all extras in one group that I would toggle off while working on the scene than toggle on just before hitting render. It can be a little time consuming at first to group all the extra parts, but at least it would make the scene workable.

Catweazle01 In reply to GrandSACHI [2017-12-18 15:48:44 +0000 UTC]
yes. I do so also.
Sometimes it is useful to render some parts separately and combine it in Photoshop.
But for Harpsburg - i don't know what a super-power-machine is neccessary that it would be possible to work with

yeah, Luq might get too easily head over heels for women, but this time, to his discharge, not too many men could have resisted the appeal of a nymph casting a love charm on them!

No worries, most paladins want to bash their own heads in from their tolerance. XD (Well, save for those who are the antagonists of the campaign- they probably love their jobs.)

New motto for paladins : "I am a paladin. Pity me. " Of course, a paladin is better on his own, for his own quest. Associating with such chaotic persons can only lead to troubles.
