[Update] Animation is Ready for Rendering
🕑 Added 2024-12-08 00:52:01 +0000 UTCAs the title says - Rog's sock tease animation is now ready for rendering.
I’ll be rendering this animation out in 1440p, and from the tests I’ve been doing while optimising render settings I’ve got it down to about 2-3 minutes per frame.
The original sock version of the animation is 867 frames long, while the barefoot alt is 880 frames - so looking at around 30-45 hours-ish render time per animation version. I'll be rendering them out in batches of frames starting tonight, taking breaks if I need my pc for anything else hardware intensive. They'll also be a pause between rendering the original and barefoot alt versions for me to make some needed tweaks to the latter.
So all together, should all be rendered and ready for uploading in about a week or so, (possibly more or possibly less depending on how smoothly things go and if any re-rendering is required).
Thank you all for your support and your patience, it takes a long time for one person to get everything done for one of these animations, but this one is right at the finishing line now.
(Edit 18/12): Currently in the process of re-rendering some things for each version to fix some remaining issues. They're partial renders that’ll be composited over the existing frames – so it won’t take as long as the originals did, but will still take a few days to finish up.

I'm in the process of re-rendering both versions at the moment due to some issues that were present in both, should hopefully be the last time either requires it, sorry for the delay.

Any update on this render? Did it complete? I'm looking forward to seeing it!

A friend of mine pretty much told me the same thing just yesterday lol. Well, I'll look into it - still plenty of time before I make any decisions. Thanks for the info~

really this current configuration of your processor will limit you a lot, I would worry about upgrading the processor and motherboard now, because you can take advantage of the RAM, the video card can wait a bit, and also, next year the new RTX 5000 comes out, you can choose a better one than the 4060 Ti

I have my eyes on a RTX 4060 Ti atm. Though I'm still deciding if I should set my sights lower and use this upgrade to tide me over till I can afford to replace my pc entirely, or if I should go all out with upgrading my current setup when I can. Either way, I still need to do more research. Ultimately, my CPU (i7-6700k) is going to be the next big limiter, especially when it comes to simulation stuff, and I'm not too keen about replacing my motherboard just yet ;p

I have RTX 3060 and the renders I've made in Blender are very fast and I usually use between 128 and 256 samples. Which model do you intend to buy for the upgrade?
Lost Proxy
64 samples + de-noising (the outputted renders for the final pass haven't been all that noisy thankfully). I've also adjusted light bounces down too, to further optimise things. My current GPU is a Nvidia GeForce GTX1660. I'm looking to hopefully upgrade to an RTX card sometime next year (but I'll have to see how things go).
Gusho
how many samples are you using? and What your GPU is?

Super looking forward to it!
