Quote - Agreed and I agree with the Nicole Kidmen thing  

Question for future multi character renders. The one I did above was difficult to to the memory suckage. Would exporting chracters as obj and re importing them make it less resource consuming?

No. 8gb are simlly not enough to render such a complex scene using Lux. Reducing the size of the textures, via texture collection, is a way of decresing the memory requirements. Beyond that you need to add RAM.

Hope this helps.
