lol. I plan on using enscape for walkthroughs/animation

In that case I'd suggest a GPU with much more ram, 2gb is very little

Thanks for the suggestion champ

Several years ago I rendered a animation with Vray 1.5 on one PC.
I believe rendering took 4-5 weeks 24/7.
I would NOT do it like that again.
With Enscape I rendered a 4 minutes animation in less than an hour.

my machine cant run enscape . each time i try it crashes

You said in a PM you had $1600 to spend on a new laptop, this will get it done:

Amazon.com: Dell Alienware R4 15.6" Full HD Gaming Laptop, 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8750H, 16GB Memory, 1TB HDD + 8GB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB, Windows 10 : Electronics

If you're serious about rendering an animation with V-Ray, I would highly recommend looking at render farms, there are quite a few options out there.

Can you send me some examples please? Thanks

this is the area i need realistic grass and the other pic is the vray setting. which is default? im not sure what to adjust it to

What settings should i have for Vray animation or better yet are should the settings be? im using vray 3.4

that is already turned on. is it a case where i need to make adjustments to the default settings?

Im unable to render large portions of grass when i use vray 3.4 with fur tool it comes with. Every time i try it freezes. any suggestion on how to remedy this?

I would still like to know how to do the walk through using vray. no matter how long it takes to render

OK THANKS. thats not exactly what i want to do it has to be in video format and not available to just online viewing

I keep getting this error when i try to run enscape

Dprince,

Are you running Enscape on a Mac with BootCamp? Anyway if on a Mac see if you can select the GPU by turning off Automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saver settings. It will make the computer use a higher-performing card if you have one. Of course the card might still not be up to Enscape standards.

im using a windows computer

for shapespaek can i save the online walkthrough as a video?

oh ok. i guess i can only use this when i upgrade. any idea how i can do the walkthrough with Vray?

I keep getting this error when i try to run enscape

does enscape adapt the material settings from vray when doing the walkthrough rendering?
