SU Render Engine
-
Hi All,
This past week I have been having major issues with some big SU and LO files. LO was constantly crashing and sometimes the referenced model in LO would disappear, highlighting the area showed the reference still there but invisible. I spent a whole non-productive morning trying figure out what was going on. I run an Nvidia RTX 2090 in a machine almost 7 years old so instantly thought its time to upgrade. After doing some reasearch and discovering others have been having similar issues I turned of the graphics engine in SU off. This didnt help much so tuned I it off in LO as well and now things are working fine. I have even found that the dimension justifcation issue I had (refer my other post in the LO forum) is now gone as well.
I am now pondering if I should go out and spend 5-6k on a new machine if the its not going to solve the issue. I am looking at the Nvidia RTX 5080 because I also run Lumion. Has anyone else here upgraded recently to something like the RTX 5080 and found that they are able to use the new SU render engine on big models and complex LO projects without any issues? TIA

Update on this post, I went out and upgraded my desktop to the unit mentioned above and I am still have the same issue with LO crashing. I had someone from tech support remote into my computer for an hour but he couldn't find the issue. I am working on projects that have been 4-5 years in the making so the model has gone through a number of SU upgrades. I did an experiment and created a new SU 2025 file and copied the base model over from the old file and created a new LO file and the problem seems to be solved (touch wood). I can now use the new graphics engine without LO or SU crashing. Along with this I changed my file location from OneDrive, which was slow and laggy, back to Dropbox. I know not ideal to have these files in the cloud but DB seems to work way better than OneDrive. So, SU2025 cant like older SU files, or at least that is what I am finding.
