thesis: off kilter
About 24 hours ago I was writing about this render. I'm still writing about this same render... granted it's actually working now, but it took way too long to figure out just what was wrong with it. Memory issues...
This scares me a bit, knowing how 5gb of ram on my mac is actually not enough to make this one scene work, I threw it over to my PC only to remember I didn't get that ram upgrade when I got the machine. No love either. So I spend bulk of my day trouble shooting the scene, cutting down, removing elements that I don't need. And I still have things to add to the scene...
I'm not happy about it, but I will most likely have to do this scene in passes, just not something I'm interested in doing right now, this scene already being a massive 12 hour render, I can't afford to lose a computer to rendering for a full day. I don't even want to think about going to school to render, I'll be lucky to find a chair to sit, getting on a fast, working computer will indeed take some major hustle and possible physical violence... 40 something thesis students and 20 usable computers... Way to go NYU.
