Thanks for the reply
I'm going i7 because I do a lot of rendering and I need the hyper-threading.
And yes, I use a fast SSD drive also.
But my question is more about the graphics card, and it´s only about viewport performance.
Will I see a huge improvement from my 750ti 2gb to a, let's say, Geforce 970 4gb?
Hi.
IDK if this is the right place to ask these questions, but here it goes.
I use v.2016 with VRay, and I got to the point when I have to upgrade my PC.
I have an AMD A10-5800k CPU with 8gb ram and a Geforce 750ti OC 2gb (I added the discrete GPU later, and saw big improvements in viewport performance)
Now I'm gonna build a new PC, with an i7 CPU and 16/32gb DDR4, because I'm getting viewport slowdowns and going into wireframe mode when orbiting -- in models bigger than 10mb...
My question is: will that CPU upgrade be enough with my current 750ti?
or would I be better off buying a cheaper CPU, so that I can add a new graphics card?
Cause I read somewhere that the difference in viewport performance, from high end graphic cards to the more modest ones (like my 750ti) isn't noticable at all...
And my budget is limited, so I have to make choices...
another amazing job, model and render
you are one of the best here, for sure
Both exterior and interior are amazing, but the exterior ones are almost perfect
I say "almost" because of the aliasing of the platform in the 1st pic
The second pic is 100% perfect to my eyes, I love the fog
Very very nice
i think the problem with the tall grass is that its too repetitive, like copied blocks of grass...
just like the tiles on the sidewalk, they are all the same texture, and it shows
also some sky and ground elements, like the guys said: light fixtures, urban elements, some birds in the sky, etc
about the colors, i would tweak it to a little bit warmer colors
it is actually pretty nice as is, but you asked for sugestions to improve, theres my 2 cents
i agree, the bottle is too centered and facing the camera, looks like a cut-out
but otherwise its a very good image
great images, i love the portrait (Audrey Hepburn?) love the blue color, everything
but i have to agree with tuna1957.. i constantly see images with rumpled rugs and i dont get why...
cause everything is so tidy, why would the rug be like that?
maybe a little wave on the rug would be nice, but much more subtle
i hope you dont get upset, its just an opinion 
well... i think you can animate objects with plugins like SketchyPhysics
and i think you can render SketchyPhysics' animations with other renderers like Thea or Twilight
i've never seen anyone render that kind of animations with Vray, but im a basic Vray user, so i dont know
good luck, i guess some of the more experienced guys in this forum may have a better advice
single bed apartment, 6 filled glasses...
im guessing it's a party guy OR a drinking problem
might be possible to do that with Sketchup and Vray, i dont know...
but to me that seems like trying to cut meat with a spoon, each software has its strengths
if you can afford it, i would advise Cinema 4D + Vray for C4D.
in my personal opinion C4D is easier to learn than other motion graphics software and if you know the basics about Vray4Sketchup, you'll do just fine with Vray4C4D
you can model in Sketchup, export a 3DS file to C4D, render the animation, and then you can export your animation with the motion tracking directly to After Effects, so all you have to do in AE is the glowing part and video effects
i hope im not stating anything wrong, because i've never done such an animation myself, but i've seen other people in the office doing that, and if i recall correctly that was their workflow
i like the way that the ceramic floor bends up, like the movie Inception,
nice render
i have that exact same carpet under my feet right now...
also, the render is great!
actually it does seem like it..
i think the image composition is great, cause it shows the perfect amount of information about the building without being too much clustered
what a headache!
but i think it was worth it, that render is great
i think its great...
just a personal preference, i like it better in color though
every oportunity i get with a more relaxed client, i present the plans in Sketchup + Illustrator, but layout works just as well
im always trying to run away from AutoCAD, lol
