Re: Unexpected force quit wtf?

Hello

I have the same problem. Windows 10, Sketchup 2014 and the latest octane render plugin. The moment I start the plugin, Sketchp crashes. I did all possible role-backs. No change. Has anybody an idea what else this cold be? I am kind of desperate here..

thx

Hi! I've compiled a quick list of a possible build based on components that are actually available for delivery in the next few days.

Re: What's the fastest rendering machine I can build?

Hi Again.

Please completely ignore my previous post, I've changed my mind to the point where I'm in agreement that building a quad-card PC to serve both as a network render slave and a potential back-up machine is the most sensible option both from the point of view of cost (those pci boxes are ...

Re: What's the fastest rendering machine I can build?

That's an interesting point, though I feel like the reliability issue is solved by the fact that even if the external box should fail, which seems to me to be less likely than a whole PC failing, then I'd still have the two cards I have atm in the box, and could continue with those.

I've also ...

Re: What's the fastest rendering machine I can build?

Hi Guys,

Thanks a lot for all of your excellent advice. At the moment, based on all of your replies, I'm tempted to go for one of the netstore external boxes. Am I right in assuming that it's not a PC in its own right, but simply something that connects to a spare PCI connector on an existing ...

What's the fastest rendering machine I can build?

Hello everybody!

I have a problem, in that I have a large job coming up which will require me to render a great number of architectural images. My current machine, a 2600k with 2x 3GB GTX 580s takes between six and ten minutes per image, which is interrupting my workflow. Therefore, I need a new ...

Re: my mappings dont not work with emissions

Thx for the quick reply, mate! I found the button in the mean time aswell, but I thought there must be a more elegant way somewhere too....;) It is just a bit fiddly and jumpy to nudge the map into the right position. Being able to lock the scale would be a great help for example and a more ...

my mappings dont not work with emissions

Hi

I trying to put an illuminated image in my renderings. Just like on a monitor screen or on an lightbox with an image. This is what I do:

- I map an image in sketchup on a surface
- I convert this image into a diffuse material in "octane materials"
- Now I have my surface in my octane render ...
