E5 v3's are looking good for a renderbeast
http://www.extremetech.com/computing/189518-intels-new-18-core-haswell-xeon-chips-will-try-to-preempt-the-arm-server-onslaught
...yeah, but those are for when I win the Megabucks lotto. The projected cost for the E5-2699 V3 is around 4,200USD
At around 670$ for each 8 core Xeon is a bit more "affordable", Yeah, I'll only have 32 instead of 72 processing threads. but it's still 4 x what I have available now.
whoa great :lol: and almost as big as the bugs here :lol:
..almost.. :bug: :bug:
SnowSultan once made a Smacky render of her looking somewhat exhausted after killing a giant spider. I said the caption should be, "Oh, was this your pet? My bad!" :lol:
Oddly enough, one of the best exercises you can do to prevent lower back pain is called the Dead Bug. You lie on your back on the floor, or on an exercise mat, then make crawling motions with your arms and legs, like a bug that whiffed too much Raid...
I've heard something like that.. might have to give it a shot! *crawl crawl*
Long day. Was ok, just long and a bit tedious.
But enough about boring work stuff. Lets post some story stuff.
This was the last one posted.
Dragon: There's a monkey on my horn!
Wham!
Here comes Reld!
Samuel's thoughts, 'Why did I think this was a good idea again?!'
Oh, hey Reld, good to see you.
(look, Samuel's cell phone is still not broken, must work harder on that)
End of update. Will post some on Wednesday or Thursday.
Sorry to hear about that, Rob! There have been others lately with the same complaint. Use PayPal!

Hey great thanks been hanging out for more Reid & friends, they sire get themselves into sticky situations :)
..almost.. :bug: :bug:
Mosquitos are so big in thse parts they have their own postcodes :lol:
trying to think how to make the gis sets more steampunkish ?
happier with this render, but the color pallette isn't in harmony
it's not post layered, is rendered all together

I believe that's Reld (it's an L not an I). At least I think so.

+1 :)
Interesting. Do those glyphs on the walls glow, or are they just a bright blue?

...for those who haven't seen the notice, Daz just released the 4.8.0.4 beta is out which included the NVidia IRay render engine. Yes Unbiased rendering in Daz Studio without the need of a plugin or bridge. The catch, you need a fairly decent Nvidia GPU (at least 4 GB VRAM) for the best performance. While it has both GPU and CPU rendering modes it doesn't have a hybrid mode which uses both, you have to chose one or the other. CPU render times are on par with 3DL based on lights and complexity of the scene being rendered.
Faster than Reality/Luxus and LuxRender in pure CPU mode, but still not as fast as Octane even in Out of Core mode.
Also not sure what else may have been broken like AoA's Advanced Light flagging, Atmospheric Cameras and Graphic Art Cameras were after 4.7 was released.
It does have a hybrid mode, you don't have to choose CPU or GPU (and if you have multiple CPU's/GPU's you can specify which ones to use). It doesn't have an out-of-core mode like Octane, so if the scene gets too big for your GPU then the GPU drops out (or if you have multiple GPU's with different amounts of VRAM, the ones that don't have enough memory drop out).
...Out of Core sounds more "stable" than straight hybrid CPU/GPU which Lux abandoned due to various issues and lack of a noticeable increase in performance.
Also that means you cannot assign the GPU with lower VRAM to the geometry and the one with higher VRAM to textures Which usually take up the most memory).. So you to get the best performance and results you still need a fairly robust (expensive) GPU.
No idea what I'm doing, but I managed to get this out of Iray. :)
...this may be the first time since Daz3.0 that I ever considered installing a beta release. Manually downloaded the 4.7 installer just in case something gets messed up. My on concern is what else might have conflicts (even using just 3DL) considering what occurred to AoA's lights and cameras. after the 4.7 release.
RIP Sam Simon, one of the greats

wow 9 Emmy's
Another broke router complaint, this time an eight y/o Linksys that served us real well :(
Hey looks great :)
rusty, brassy, copper-y details and sssssteam :lol:
I believe that's Reld (it's an L not an I). At least I think so.
Dana
Been fat fingering the l forever :lol:
My 12GB of AMD VRAM misses out woes, must be a bit trickier/less exemplified to program
New router must be working straight out of the box non complaint :) Couldn't buy one naked, they all seem to come with wireless so the only issue was disabling all that. Hopes I did anyhow :lol:
I laughed for a good full minute upon seeing this.... XD
