Strange Render Speeds

Post by deterius » Tue Dec 28, 2021 6:28 am

Dear Twilight forum.

I've been using Twilight Render Hobby Version for months now and it usually works great.
  • I was playing around with two point lights and rendering them with zero issues (around 30 seconds to render)
  • I've added an emitter surface and that increased my rendering time (NORMAL, but I deleted it to speed up rendering)
  • Then I added a spot light (like I've done many times before in other models) and suddenly my rendering time increased to close to 15 minutes!.
  • Strange, I deleted the spot light- but my remaining rendering time for the to point lights is still extremely long (around 10 minutes)
  • I deleted ALL the lights and my rendering is still extremely slow (still around 10 minutes)
I checked my surfaces, everything- my rendering time is suddenly very long? What happened?

I found the issue: carelessness.

I accidentally clicked another large surface and made it an emitter- hence the rendering time.

:^: That would do it, thank you for letting us know.
