Hello,
As I am about to start to do the production renderings, I added a sunlight system to my project yesterday and have since been trying to find good render settings, mainly trying out the .visopt files delivered with Vray. Yesterday evening I set up my computer to render overnight only to find that 7 hours later, it had only managed to make it 1/5 through the "Building Light Cache" pass... Trying out different settings this morning I realised that all .visopt files that include "Light Cache" as their secondary engine seems to operate at the same speed, even if I use the files called "very_low" (e g, "qi_gmc_lc_very_low"). Is this really correct or what is the problem? Considering the speed it was going at tonight, it would take me 5 days to render a single image (oh, output size was something around 550x450; very small), not to mention what will happen when I start doing it the size I need! Please help, I am desperate!
In the "Render Progress" window it says something about
"Bitmap file "F:\Rhinoceros\Renderer\V-Ray\Training\Textures\Specklessparse Grayscale.jpg" failed to load: cannot open file" and I am guessing that this might have something to do with the sunlight system? I am on Windows 7 so the path above doesn't even exist and I can't find where to change it..
I am on a new Macbook Pro so I don't think the computer is the problem, however I don't have that much space left on my harddrive but that shouldn't have anything to do with it I suppose..?
Any help would be deeply, deeply appreciated. Its my diploma project and I'm running out of time..
