Attached Link: Greybro's 100 Figures Poser Composition, Enter The Net

1 vehicle

15 props

How many figures can Poser handle?

In an effort to produce something akin to the magnificent works of NeelzOnline, but sans the mutli software workflow, I'm attempting to place 100 poser figures into a single render.

The company line is that Poser is only limited by your computers resource and that may be true but I have noticed a few oddities once you set up so many figures. Some of it may be related to cross talk but some of the issues seem to come from out of nowhere.

For instance POser won't remember applied morphs when you save such a large scene.

In any case, if you'd like to follow my project thread to see how it progresses and the problems I run into and how I solved them. The thread is here.

My goal is to be able to render 100 figures before resorting to Photoshop to fix pokethrough and things of that nature. Things like my PC's specs are included in the main thread as well as at least weekly progress updates until I hit my mark.

Impressive!

Thanks. It's been a lot of fun. If you really want to see impressive, you should check out this thread.

Its by neelzonline and included 1111 figures.

Woo! That's graet!:woot:

Don't the clothes the figures are wearing count? My computer counts 'em! 

Yeah, of course. I'm aiming for 100 figures, humans, monsters etc. I'm not really counting the props, boats, pencils, motorcyle etc in that ammount.

It really depends on the poly counts of the figures and your system resources but go for it!

An update. Getting close to 100 now!

That is just too cool!  Really unique and clever theme.  Like that one alot!

Thanks. Much appreciated.

Now that would have made a great cover for the new Poser. Thanks for sharing that.

Wow!  This is sweet but can you tell us a bit about your system   I do more then two or 3 figures pluse props and get not enough  memory error msg.

Are you useing 32 or 64bit OS?

Sure. This is buried back on the first page of the original thread.

My concept is called "Enter The Net" and is meant as visual metaphor of my whole experience of getting exposed to 3D art when I originally came online. Being one of those poor souls who just cannot draw well, 3D art opened me to a whole universe of self expression and for that, I am grateful

So, what we have here is the scene based I settled on with the first several figures included. The size is 5100 x 7020. Of course this forum only supports a fraction of that size so you're seeing a greatly reduced quality image each time I post. I will do the zoomed in cross sections which neelzonline featured in his thread a bit later.

About My PC
Windows 7 Ultimate
Processor: Intel i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz 3.70 GHz
Memory: 16 GB
Video Card: NVIDIA GEForce GTX 470[/u]

Thanks Im useing 3.0GHz processer   Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit OS,  4GB's ram but it only allows me to use 3GB's, & Radeon 1GB Vid card.

Do you think my memory issues will stop once I upgrade to 64 bit OS?   I know that once I do I can max my system out to 16GB's of memory.

WEll I find the 64 B version of Poser Pro to work a lot smoother.

Im at a loss for words right now but doing my best to count     

Oh! how long did it take to do your last render?

At this point I'm adding them invididually. The last big render with something like 69 figures took around 8 hours.

I get 103 if I don't count the two angel fish in the water cooler.

:thumbupboth: Cool!

Thanks. Miscounted. It's currently 107.

Well done!!! Amazing and quite amusing. Thank you. Something to look forward to when I get a Poser Pro and a new computer.

I think I'm up to the 120's now.

This is cool, but it's a still shot. Imagine if you were to animate this..... wow...

And it's way beyond what my system could handle.

It'd take a buff render farm to animate this for sure!
