What is your "size on HDD" setting in System > System Settings?

Changing this solved the problem.
Changed from 512 to 2048.

Thanks!

Still in need of an answer guys, i'd be grateful if anyone can point me a solution.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply Maru,

The image is 3000x 2000.

Neither RAM nor HDD is tight on space (32GB and ~200GB free, respectively).

Any other possible causes?

Thanks

Hello.

I'm experiencing something a bit odd: my VFB history doesn't keep more than 1 saved image, i.e., every time i try to save a new one it just replaces the last.

Can you guys help me out with this?

Corona 1.5.2

Thanks in advance

[Max] Tutorials & Guides / Re: Vegetation shader

Hello guys.

Can we please revive this topic?

I'm in the process of creating some images with heavy vegetation, so i'd love if we could sort of "update" the methodology to create awesome vegetation shaders.

At the moment i'm following what Adán Martin + Juraj Talcik have shared, and i'm already getting satisfying results.

Thanks,

Hello guys,

Just to let you know my rig is up and running. And it's AWESOME!
Currently running it @ 3,8Ghz + 2666 RAM CL16 (can't get tighter timings/higher frequencies for now).

Cinebench 15: 1542 (multithread)
Corona benchmark: 2:39

Build:
Ryzen 1700 @ 3,8Ghz
Asus x370 Prime PRO
G.Skill Trident Z CL15 32GB (16x2) @ 2666 CL16

Note: the stock cooler seems pretty good.

Let me know if you want me to try something specific with it.

Thanks for the pre build advice!

This made me think about serious OC. If you guys have some wisdom on this matter please share it!
Might need to spend some time researching for what is best in terms of coolers and if i should go for water cooling (not thinking of getting over 4Ghz tho).

So, changing from 1700x to 1700+better cooler.

I read about that higher speed RAM thing, but it seems to only affect single threaded performance, i.e., gamers mostly. So, is 3000Mhz enough? Guess so, higher than that becomes a bit prohibitive price wise.

Thanks for your input guys, much appreciated.

Changed the build to fit what Juraj said: 32GB 2400Ghz RAM (16x2) + bigger SSD.

About the CPU, that's something i haven't really tought about, i tend to go for the middle option when i'm not too sure. In this case after some reading it seems 1700 is pretty much the same as the others when overclocked. Check this article:
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-amd-ryzen-7-1700-1700x-vs-1800x-review

I'm not an overclocker, haven't done it before. So on 1700, would it be easy to do it without XFR? I guess i could only go as high as TurboCore lets me right (3,7Ghz)?

What do you think about this Juraj? 1700 or 1700x?

Thanks again,

Hardware / Advice on new workstation build - Ryzen based
« on: 2017-03-31, 11:34:59 »
Hi.

I'm looking to get a new workstation to replace my late 2013 iMac, so this is what i'm thinking about:



I have a few questions about the build:
1- RAM: would it be enough for up to 20M polys scenes? And shall i get 16GBx1 or 8GBx2? Is the speed really relevant for what we do or can i get a lower clock RAM?
2- GPU: is the 1060 enough?

Feel free to give me your opinions!

Thanks,
T.
