Optimal Configuration

Recommended Posts

The important thing to know about how VW renders is that it uses free ram to render, not allocated ram. The optimal setting is the absolute minimum you need to manipulate the model. For me Its around 35 Mb, sometimes more sometimes less depending on the complexity of the models.

My models are around 8 Mb, but this is usually due to the size of the images I use for material maps, I think if I delete all of my image based textures they drop to around 2 Mb.

I have a G4 400 with 256 Mb of ram, my VM is on and set to 380 Mb and I have a 16 Mb Vidio card.

The VM setting seem to be critically important when trying to export a high resolution Image of a ray traced rendering. If I turn it off I can't export.

Hope all this helps,

Good Luck
