Can't render using GPU anymore

mumia76

For some reason I'm no longer able to render using GPU, Studio always falls back on CPU rendering even if there is only a single figure in the scene with no clothes or even hair.

I was able to render 2-3 fully clothed figures with accessories until now.

What has changed, have you updated DS, GPU drivers or the OS?

Nothing changed, I did not update anything. Not even the GPU driver. The only time it uses GPU for rendering is when there are no figures in the scene.

Windows 10? It has a tendency to update drivers in the background, if you don't prohibit it.

What GPU are you using? What is the current driver version? What is the DS version (Help>About Daz Studio)?

I've got the problem, too. Updating iRay drivers eliminate all the troubles. You should download XPerience to let it detect newer version of driver.

I found the cause was another application that changed GPU settings on startup. It would be great if Daz Studio would just show a message when it reverts to cpu rendering with a simple cause like out of memory, etc.
