...it you built and configured it, I'd consider one. (need to get another box, PS, and network card)
I have LuxRender as well as Blender Cycles which would both benefit greatly from that. Also the discussion mentions CUDA which would really accelerate the Cycles engine as it already supports unbiased GPU rendering. Unfortunately, the 3Delight unlimited core licence is something like 1,250$ (850$ if you go via the upgrade route from the free duo core licence) ...and support costs extra.
My biggest issue is that getting anything running on that board will be a multi-year project.. synchronizing thread access to shared RAM resources is going to be problematic, although I could do copy-on-access for smaller references with enough RAM, or break a single frame into 16 core-sized bits.. many possible approaches.
It's cheap - $200 for the 16 core version - and the sw dev tools are free. This wheezy i5 box would be perfect for it,
I can't believe I'm even thinking about this. :-S
...ahh, but you have the expertise I am lacking. I can put these things together and get them running, but when it comes to configuration coding I'm like a caveman who was just handed a sliderule.
I have to thank my lack of a life.. since Ihave no life I have lots of time to spend on this stuff. :blank:
Argh, I just shoved a floruscent torus into the scene! I'll be a this all nifght! (cry cry)
..ahh at least it was just into the scene and not in Vick-...oh, right, need to stay TOS compliant here.
The torus ruins the scene because it doesn't interact properly with the volumetrics .. le sigh.
Back to the drawing board. Maybe UberAreaLight...
The pork carnitas fajita soft tacos came out PERFECT! Off to wath a movie and eat! :coolsmile:
...yeah, my virtual daughter is the same way.
However oddly, the cheese and crackers as well as Ćevapi I get seem to keep disappearing and I thought that the level of Kruškovac in the bottle has been going down faster than it should.
virtual bf manages to spend my money :roll: :)

I would call that a virus or worm or hacker.

Got "sandblasted" last night.
Decided to walk to the grocery at 8:30pm. It was 85F so I was sweating when I got there. After picking up a few things I needed, i stepped outside right into one of our summer dust storms. Walking home INTO the wind which is blowing dust at 35mph with gusts up to 45mph is NOT fun. Still over 80F but the wind kept me from sweating. Still, from the little bit of sweat plus the blowing dust, got home last night looking like I had been working at a construction site. Took my second shower in two hours just to clean the dust off.
Morning. Bright sun and warm spots to sit in makes for a quintessential Melbourne Sunday ;)
Hey thanks, is the fire effect just starting to build. Still learning to software http://www.jawset.com/
THe biggest SNAFU with volumetrics is having the camera inside the effect :lol: so what's behind the camera doesn't render ;)
Not even half birthday doh!
Here in Arizona we call that a miracle.:lol:
Downunder we call it a PITA :lol:
That's the way :)
wow that's really organised. I'm so the opposite.... :lol:
Carrara is more configurable so in theory you can tweak render times on a light by light basis :)
Not even half birthday doh!
i managed carrying home ice cream cake, tin of espresso, and pint of 1/2&1/2 :)
and it didn't rain on the hike. iz the little things to appreciate.
The effect is starting to disappear tho ;)
*hugs* hopes that is better by now ;)

Aug 10th. lessee 21 days + 24 days to ironman3 dvd release. psyched. even though, from the trailers can't tell what it's about. looks like Pepper is in a suit. and he has an anxiety attack.

I think it's an overweight Sphinx cat. Most I've seen in photos are very thin, so this must be a rarity indeed.
He/she is doing a great kangaroo impression, tho. :lol:
That does not sound like fun!
I posted this in the Stupid Thread. I'm posting it here, too.
Because I can. :P

What are you going to do with all that ice cream cake? :bug: You'll waste all that good effort of avoiding the candy.
Dana

it wasn't. We usually get those dust storms right before one of our very rare summer thunderstorms. Our average rainfall for august (as well as July) is less than a quarter inch so that tells you how often we get rain. So it rained to my east, west, north, and south and we got ... nothing.
Really? Everybody's talkin' 'bout...me? :gulp: Nothing good I assume.

That's too bad. It would be good to wet down the dust. Where do you live, in the midwest? I hear these big dust storms might be making a comeback, like the Great Dust Bowl of 1935-1936, due to all the drought we keep experiencing. :grrr:

...just did again I and saw the new code and date. Thought that was for the other one which expired earlier in the week. Thanks.
That also cleared the unread PM message.
