kim, any particular reason you think that even with complex renders this
would not speed up the process? some weeks ago we did some full cg
backgrounds at 1280x720, fast sss, displacement...as far as we're concerned
everything was optimized...still rather slow. somebody mentioned royal
render has a feature that does exactly this, can somebody confirm this?
currently we use smedge...
Hi Daniel,
I don't see why this couldn't be scripted. Not too hard if you're scripting
savvy or if not, CG Soup can offer solutions like this as a service. If
you're interested, the cost may not be too much.
I'm not sure what sort of images you're rendering or what kind of experience
you have optimising renderers but in my experience it's rare for lockouts to
happen unless you're doing something really close to the edge. We can advise
in general or on a per shot basis if you like.
If you are working with very complex renders then I'm not sure that chopping
up shots would help you.
