AZ MediaOne Design Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 my new machine is core 2 quad with a nVidia 8800. Rendering is faster but the CPU is running at 25 to 30%. Im a LITTLE disapointed, to say the least.... Rendering In Vectorworks is mainly dependant on the processor now. Are there plans to take advantage of the new line of high end graphic cards for rendering? Maybe even encoprating a third party rendering engine like Crytek?s CryENGINE 2 http://www.crytek.com/screenshots/index.php?sx=cryengine2&px=environment_set6_new.jpg Real time 60 to 80 FPS rendering what it takes VectorWorks on a Core 2 Quad two hours for one frame ????? check the link above, the future is here? maybe...

AZ MediaOne Design Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 I use this great free app to measure cpu use during rendering. http://www.download.com/3000-2094_4-10684373.html?tag=dl.1 Select "view" / "System Information" and watch it as it renders your image.... view multi cores I need to find one that measures graphic card use.
