enable hyperthreading on DR machine

I’m using VRay DR on a computer that has hyper-threading, but the hyper-threading is not being utilized. Is there a way to activate hyper-threading on a DR system?

HT is usually set up in the bios. its not something that DR should be turning off or anything like that.

i think displacement has a problem with multiprocessors…i cant remember

If you have MAX9 you must write something into max listener window to tell max about using more than 1 CPU (virtual or physical)

search here for MAX9 and Vray licence issue

The work around is detailed on page 2 of this thread:

make V-Ray the current renderer, open the MaxScript listener (F11), type “renderers.current.system_numThreads=2” without the quotes and press Enter.
