It's really simple: doing any type of 3d work takes horsepower, and "smart working".

When you are isung a number f figures and props in a scene, don;t try to use the full preview settings.. drop down to wireframe or even cartoon shading. That's what th ebig guys like Lucasfilms do.

When they do a movie, they have whole rooms full of computers doing the processing, for a year at a crack. And every time a new poser version is released, with new and better rendring abilities, render time increases, because our computers are doing more and more calculations.

And no, I don't think it should be a sticky at all.. it's just the nature of the beast.

If you sat through the 24 hour long renders I used to do 190 years ago of JUST a glass ball at 320x200, you'd realize how far we've come in all this time.

We're all just so used to "I want in NOW!" that patience is going out the door, and when you are doing 3D work on ANY system with ANY software, patience (or renderfarming) is one of the main ingredients.

 

 

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
