Hello VWD3D.

Changing the check box from GPU to "Use multithreading" has helped! Static and dynamic simulation works!

Thank you for help VWD3D !!!

Great news.

It seems to me that the NVIDIA/GPU functionality may rely on certain Hardware/Driver/System specifics than we could test. We only have a few systems of our own to test with, and the GPU problems that the beta-testers found were fixed, to the best of my understanding.

FWIW, I have older GeForce 760s with the NVIDIA drivers that are recommended for DAZ's IRAY (430.86). I'm pretty sure Gérald has the much more current 1080 series card(s).

(I'm drooling at the 2080rtx, but not today...).

We've also seen more stable results with the Simulation tab 'Double sticks' (GPU related) and 'CPU sticks' checkboxes enabled. These are optimizations that may add time to your simulations, but may also allow them work well with certain outfits.

I'm glad you are able to see VWD working!

cheers,

VWD3D (dan)
