My current Dual Xeon has been awesome but is 2.5 times slower than the newer crops and so I am looking at re- placing it . Here's my dilemma ;
Sorry , 2.5 times slower is for a single quad core , 5 times slower for the Dual-Quad cores . Alisdair , not sure what you mean by render with 2 cpu's . Thanks garry
Hi : My current Dual Xeon has been awesome but is 2.5 times slower than the newer crops and so I am looking at re- placing it . Here's my dilemma ; When doing RS Gi , 1 CPU will be working and 7 CPU's will be sitting idle ! Is there a workaround where I can tell RS to only render every 4th or 8th frame ? We have the "Frame Commands" in the render panel so couldn't we insert a "render every 4th frame" java or RPL command ? Must be a way . World Construction Set isn't and probably will never be multi-threaded but it has always had a "Render Every Xth Frame" in it's Render Panel . That way we could fire up several instances of WCS and have all our CPU's working away . Thanks in advance for any suggestions . garry
