Nice pic, Zanny! But I hate you for having a faster pc than my 433 P3

Congrats! Now it's only a matter of time before you begin to use all the high settings and find yourself waitin again for overnight renders :) [just what Tjohn wisely predicted to me when I upgraded coupla months ago, LOL] S.

That's the way it is. I started on a 1.13 Celeron, then upgraded to a 2.53 Pentium. Now I try all those high settings... and anything I try to render takes just as long as before. :) Still - congrats on the new PC, and very cool pic!

Congratulations with your new PC. I'm sure you'll enjoy the extra processing power. And I'll have to agree with DC and Nick, you'll soon be back to rendering overnighters. My first render on my new system took 3 days. It wouldn't even render at my old one.

Same here :) The last Interior Study took 3 full days. On my Old One it would've taken a couple of weeks ...
Rayraz posted Thu, 12 June 2003 at 10:08 AM
I've had a render that was so complex that my old system thought it was going to take 4 years to render. I never finished the render. Not even on my new machine. The results just wheren't good enough to compensate the rendertime.

LOL... what was the estimate time readout? 400:21:12:10? :)
Rayraz posted Thu, 12 June 2003 at 10:11 AM
Don't really remember anymore. I interpreted it as 4 years, and my own calculations came to the same conclusion. My quess is 4:23:12:10:56 or something.

Ang25: The Bryster to the rescue! In a world littered with manic, menacing, mac-using, marauders, one heroic 3 dimensional artist strides forth and saves the day. Ang will fear no more! Armed with his trusty (if ancient)pc, The Bryster will render an impenetrable shield within which Ang25 will stick her tongue out at the unruly rabble that infests the Renderosity..........

BTW My comp is faster then yours, so I'll have rendered a shield-disruptor before you have rendered an remodulated shield that can take my disruptor.

Sorry Rayraz! Already done, complete with anti-shield disrupter technology and time-line reactive thingies. So you can't even go back in time and beat me to it....so there! Ang, you're in good hands......mine!

Somehow, I doubt anyone would want me for my PC. Its pretty darn old. So old that I was pleasantly shocked to find it had two usb ports tucked up under the power cord. Phew, I didn't need to install the usb card I bought. Went and got my money back on it.

I blame Rayraz! Not for anything in particular...... I'm sorry you had all the trouble, Ang. My impenetrable shield would have protected you from all that...now, about your phone number......

4 years, 23 days, 12 hours, 10 minutes and 56 seconds. There's probably no month counter, because not every month has the same number of days.

LOL,u guys crack me up. Already I know what you mean and still the volumetic atmosphere setting alluds me, just how god darn fast must your PC be for that to work? 5Ghz??? :)
Incarnadine posted Fri, 13 June 2003 at 5:54 PM
That would help! (5 Ghz that is)

5ghz? Peanuts....I want an EARTH SIMULATOR! This beauty uses 5,120 NEC SX-6 vector processors and is probably the fastest computer on the planet!

Hmmm... might actually be able to handle true ambience with volumetric world!

Rayraz posted Sat, 14 June 2003 at 2:04 AM
I've already done that. Depends on the scene how slow it is. Try a volumetric world with real ambience and a GI-dome with soft shadows :) that'll slow any PC down.
