Multi-threading is Great!

[BKEicholtz]

I want to correct my earlier post. I noticed that there were no other complaints about 1.13 failing with Forest Pack Pro. So, I reinstalled and everything is working great! With the multi-threaded use of my 6 core (12 core with hyperthreading), my animation frames have been cut in half.. from over 2 min to a little over 1 min.
Thanks for the good work!

I am curious what the road map looks like for other new features/improvements?

Hello! The multi threading that I am referring to is regarding the CPU. In an animation, voxelization occurs between each frame. CPU affects the speed of this. Karba enabled Octane to use all the available CPU cores for voxelization. I imagine you are already using all of your processor multi-threading right now.

I am afraid that you would only have a small benefit if you used a faster processor. I get the impression that your single graphics card is a bigger part of your bottleneck.

I doubt that you are having the same problem as this individual was having.

Yes I am using all the cores on my CPU , you're right.
I am about to upgrade my Hardware and possibly have a dedicated video card, something faster like the GTX 690 .Thank you for your kind reply and info.
