Re: Headless/Standalone mode
Kerkythea actually just tends to die at resolutions above 4k, which is a bit annoying, but I been able to make some headway toward using it for animations. Unfortunately it simply is too unstable to use, I wake up the next morning to a "Stopped responding" error from it. I'll maybe just fi...

Headless/Standalone mode
I know this is asking much, but I having some problems with getting Sketchup to work on my vmware cluster the issue I keep running into is that Sketchup itself requires hardware acceleration, which is something my cluster cannot do. I was wondering if there are any plans to maybe offer a way to rend...

Re: First Impressions
Yes, there is no reason, isn't that a good enough one? Jokes aside I much prefer 60fps, that's basically it. In terms of doing large renderings, I just like showing even small details and thus tend to render at over 100MP most of the time. Pushing it only this far when the model is pretty big. I lik...

Re: First Impressions
1 hour 42 minutes and 10 seconds later and I can say that the maximum that Twilight is likely to render somewhat reliably is 300-400MP and that makes me very, very happy. I found that leaving the multithreading at the highest level, but using task manager to restrict core usage seems to yield the be...

Re: First Impressions
I switched the Preset to Prelim and added Production AA 0.1 to the preset. After some more testing I think what is happening is the render-engine crashes. I immediately noticed that there was no image in the window during ray tracing. The resource usage goes to 0% and the Ray Tracing again remains a...

Re: First Impressions
Most ETAs are always wrong, it's somewhat of a running joke in Windows since it was introduced. Still, it does add at least a rough ballpark of what to expect. I generally tend to watch more for how the estimate changes and make my own predictions on that. If it continues to go up it's likely not to...

First Impressions
I bought a pro license today, coming from SU Podium(which just never behaved itself), I have been on and off trying the various previous versions of Twilight in the past and I finally decided for what I do with Sketchup 8 it's all I really need(not to say its not an amazing tool, it is). Having done...
