when using high-computation stuff like massive discplacement or motion blur with 32 time samplings per frame or super high poly trees instanced 100.000 times, stopping the render takes 20-30 seconds. if passes are enabled even longer. any way to speed this up?

I can ask for a way to interrupt, but i suppose that's not easy to implement. Personally, i prefer to have a faster compilation on geometries. This would be a big gain for each plugins.

i agree.

having 4 gpus. i like to use i.e. two instances of c4d parallel with 2 gpus each, when rendering a bunch of similar stills with different material setups. sometimes one c4d renders wired pictures like it gets mixed up with the other c4d... materials or lights/hdrs seem to move over to the other renderfile. anybody else having the issue?

Hi,
i'm not use 2 c4d instances , but sometimes i have stranges horizontales stripes in picture viewer (never happened like this before 2.2 ), its like 2 renders are mixed.
i ll try to post a screenshot...

anyway i ve just updated from 2.14 to 2.22.2 ,i know i come after the "battle", but it is normal that the f-stop and aperture sliders are sync and move both together?

This glitch was here in 2.21 or 2.22 early versions. Have you tryed with 2.22.2 test3?

Hi,
yes i've just updated from 2.14 to 2.22.2test3 , i've not use earlier since 2.14.

And for the aperture and f-stop sliders sync ?

hmm, interesting. We don't see the glitches anymore. Can you post a screen shot?

And, yes both sliders are going together as in last Standalone.

Thanks for speedy answers...
i ll try to post a screen ..

Here, kind of glitches i have sometimes in PV since i have updated from 2.14 to 2.22.2 t3 ( never happened like this before )

Does this also happen, if you disable network rendering?
