OTOY Forums

Heya folks,

Maybe I'm stupid but I cannot see the NVLink "blue bar" kick in once things spill over the VRAM limit. I can verify that NVLink actives as the scene doesn't render without it (with OOC disabled) and I'm getting those pesky NVLink related errors relatively quickly. That said, I still don't quite understand where the blue bar for NVLink should be in the c4d version - And likewise for the orange OOC one.

They seemingly don't show up in the LV and they also don't show up under "device settings". Am I just being thick about it?

The reason I'm asking about it is to kind of know what to except performance wise when dealing with huge geo heavy scenes.

Much appreciated!

I posted a request about this in the C4D request section a couple of months back. It would be great to have the blue bar in C4D. I am not a programmer but I would think it would not be that difficult to implement since it already exists in standalone.
It is a great fast way to get a visual on NVLink usage.

Must have missed your post then. Appreciate you filling in the request, I really think mirroring this feature from the standalone would be useful.

Sorry what's blur bar, any picture?

from standalone...love that P2P Blue Bar box when NvLink is in action! Very useful.
