Rendering of a scene with a big number of objects

[alex_temnyakov]

Good day,

I have a scene which has more than one million vegetation objects. Could anybody please advise if there are some efficient ways how to render it? I have tried to combine these objects, but it seems Octane isn't able to render very big objects (Unity crashes for me), And this scene loads into Octane about 1 hour each time I do it. Is it possible to do something to shorten the time of loading?

Thanks for responses.

How many of these objects are instances of the same underlying mesh?
