I think VFB window has lag when after render finished. Anyone confirm this?

[sandykoufax]

I found that it(lag) is occurred when I use Nitrous viewport. No problem with DX9.
Is this a Nitrous problem?

[Mirko]

Same here

[vlado]

Can you give me some details how to reproduce this? I'm not seeing this here on a simple test.

Best regards,
Vlado

[Mirko]

Just create some geometry, add some materials, lights, etc. with the Nitrous "realistic" viewport mode set ON.
Then render the scene with VRay and cancel the rendering while it is still in the final rendering process. Now the VFB freezes for a few seconds.

[vlado]

Hm, still fine here. What is your graphics card and driver version? How many CPU cores do you have?

Best regards,
Vlado

I am using a Quadro FX 3700 in a workstation with Intel X5450 @3 GHz (2 CPUs, 4 cores each). Working with Vista x64 and 12 GB ram.

I'm using ATI HD3850 and i7 2600 quadcore (no overclock) and 16GB Ram with Win7 x64

i have found that due to change in vertex count, motion blur in TP doesnt calculate which the object is being transformed by the volumebreaker. its fine before and after the change but not during. is there a work around?
